President Donald Trump on Tuesday ridiculed Democratic presidential candidate Mike Bloomberg, calling him “Mini Mike” and saying the former New York City mayor has a poor golf swing.
“Mini Mike is a short ball (very) hitter. Tiny club head speed. KEEP AMERICA GREAT!” Trump tweeted, in response to a tweet from a user whose name read “Bernie Beast Trump” that tweeted a picture of Trump with Bloomberg along with the caption, “Good morning! #BloombergIsRacist.”
Earlier on Tuesday, Trump tweeted and then quickly deleted a message saying Bloomberg is a “TOTAL RACIST” in response to a clip of the former mayor defending the “stop and frisk” policy used by police.
In the clip, which was from a talk at The Aspen Institute in 2015, Bloomberg can be heard saying: “One of the unintended consequences is people say, ‘Oh my God, you are arresting kids for marijuana. They’re all minorities.’ That’s true. Why? Because we put all the cops in the minority neighborhoods. Yes, that’s true. Why do you do it? Because that’s where all the crime is.”
