With Warren and Sanders maintaining a significant lead over corporate and so-called "moderate" Democrats in the primary, Biden tanking, and left rhetoric including a wealth tax and/or bigger levels of progressive taxation, some billionaires are getting very uneasy. Bill Gates recently had a back-and-forth with Warren on social media.
Enter Michael Bloomberg. Yes, he's also scared and now he's entering the Primary race. Bloomberg is framing his entrance into the race as a way to save the party from defeat against Trump, that the left cannot win--they need a former Republican "moderate" billionaire to take on Trump. Bloomberg won't be another Tom Steyer because he has media connections, much like Trump.
This doesn't seem like a good thing.
