But there were some concerns if the Democratic party is really the party of Bloomberg or is it the party of socialist Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez:

The Democratic Party needs to decide if it’s the party of @MikeBloomberg or the party of @Ocasio2018. For those of us that don’t want to see a second trump term, let’s hope they decide to be the party of Bloomberg. https://t.co/aSaD9xQ7z6

The former mayor of New York City quickly answered that question when he headlined a fundraiser for Republican Peter King:

HAHAHA! It’s almost the $80 million is being used to buy fake goodwill from Dems ahead of a potential presidential run:

Well, this answers the "Are you for the party of @MikeBloomberg or the party of @Ocasio2018?" question for me. Pretty definitively, at that. https://t.co/Vq68flU9lX
