When speaking before his Colorado supporters, Trump professed that the Minnesota senator “choked” and “couldn’t breathe” when being pressed by Buttigieg. The former South Bend mayor repeatedly criticized Klobuchar for failing to remember the name of the Mexican president earlier this month.

Shortly thereafter, Trump shared his thoughts on Bloomberg’s execution during the ninth Democrat debate. The president pointed out that the former mayor didn’t do so well; Trump’s consensus is largely popular by far, with folks on both the left and the right saying that Bloomberg didn’t have a great night on Wednesday.
Of course, it’s important to note that Trump and Bloomberg sparred with one another multiple times via Twitter prior to the debate in Las Vegas. The president has taken issues with the manner in which “Mini Mike” portrays him in campaign ads; furthermore, Trump previously suggested that Bloomberg might be interested in a box on the debate stage to appear taller.
