Trump posted tweets early Sunday tearing into Bloomberg, whom he mocked as "Mini Mike" in reference to Bloomberg's height.
Former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg responded to President Donald Trump's Twitter attacks on Sunday, saying the president is afraid of losing to him the general election.
In one, he slammed the billionaire media mogul for allowing the news organization that bears his name to cover the White House but not his own campaign, or other 2020 Democrats. "Looks like our ads are keeping you up at night. We've got one in particular you should watch today," replied Bloomberg, who is running a campaign ad during Sunday's Super Bowl.
"Mini Mike is now negotiating both to get on the Democrat Primary debate stage, and to have the right to stand on boxes, or a lift, during the debates. This is sometimes done, but really not fair!" Trump tweeted. The president also claimed Bloomberg was demanding a box to stand on during the debate in an excerpt from a Fox News interview that was shared on social media.
