Great, Another Self-Important Billionaire Throws His Hat into the Presidential Ring

This time, it's Michael Bloomberg who appears to be upset that he will have to pay more taxes under a Sanders or Warren presidency.
Michael R. Bloomberg is actively preparing to enter the Democratic presidential primary and is expected to file paperwork this week designating himself as a candidate in at least one state with an early filing deadline, people briefed on Mr. Bloomberg’s plans said.

Mr. Bloomberg, the former New York City mayor and billionaire businessman, has been privately weighing a bid for the White House for weeks and has not yet made a final decision on whether to run, an adviser said. But in the first sign that he is seriously moving toward a campaign, Mr. Bloomberg has dispatched staffers to Alabama to gather signatures to qualify for the primary there. Though Alabama does not hold an early primary, it has a Friday deadline for candidates to formally enter the race.

Mr. Bloomberg and his advisers called a number of prominent Democrats on Thursday to tell them he was seriously considering the race, including former Senator Harry Reid of Nevada, the retired majority leader who remains a dominant power broker in the early caucus state. Aides to Mr. Bloomberg also reached out to Gov. Gina Raimondo of Rhode Island, the chair of the Democratic Governors Association.
Yes, the problem with the Democratic Party Presidential primaries are that there are not enough arrogant billionaires in the race, said no one ever.

If you think that Kamala Harris has problems because of her record as District Attorney and California Attorney General, just imagine how "Mayor Stop and Frisk" will be received by minority voters.
