Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.) added later: “I don’t think you look at Donald Trump and say, we need someone richer than Donald Trump in the White House.”
Bloomberg entered the primary race late and isn’t on the ballot in the first four voting states, including Saturday’s caucuses in Nevada. He has spent hundreds of millions of his own dollars in advertising efforts that have helped him surge in national polls. He is targeting Super Tuesday states.
