Michael Bloomberg, the billionaire media owner and former New York mayor, has stated for the first time that he is considering a run for US president, a move that would dramatically reshape the 2016 race for the White House.

Speaking to the Financial Times, the founder of the eponymous financial information group criticised the quality of the debate in the presidential race. He said that he was “looking at all the options” when asked whether he was considering putting his name forward.

“I find the level of discourse and discussion distressingly banal and an outrage and an insult to the voters,” Mr Bloomberg said in an interview, before adding that the US public deserved “a lot better”.

  1. He is looking better every day

  2. Pull the trigger Mikey….save us from ourselves.

  3. Zero chance of winning.

  4. He has zero chance of looking better… unless he runs as a Democrat…
    Then I could get behind him. He’d be more true to the historical values of the Democrat party than the self-identified Socialist and the woman with the chameleon-like values (and accent!).
