Democratic presidential hopeful Sen. Amy Klobuchar blasted former Mayor Michael Bloomberg’s late entry into the 2020 campaign, saying she and the other candidates are fully capable of taking on President Trump.
“I have admiration for the work that he’s done. But I don’t buy this argument that you get in because you say, ‘oh everyone else sucks.’ I just don’t,” the Minnesota Democrat said on Sunday’s “Meet the Press.”
“I think we have strong candidates. I don’t think that any of the polling or the numbers show that people are dissatisfied with all their candidates. They’re just trying to pick the right one,” she added. “So my case is to make that it’s me.”
Bloomberg jumped into the race last Sunday by releasing an ad that touted his accomplishments during his three terms as New York mayor and vowed to defeat Trump.
The billionaire has vowed to use as much as $150 million of his personal fortune to take on fellow billionaire Trump.
