FRESNO, Calif. (Reuters) – U.S. Democratic governmental contender Michael Bloomberg vowed on Monday he would not let President Donald Trump bully him as the war of words in between the two New york city organisation magnates and political competitors ended up being nastier.

Trump informed Fox News Channel’s Sean Hannity in an interview that aired on Sunday that Bloomberg, who stands about 5 feet 8 inches (1.73 m) high, versus the president’s 6 feet 3 inches (1.91 m), had actually asked for a box to stand on throughout the Democratic debates.
The jab followed the Democratic National Committee (DNC) ditched a guideline last week needing that candidates meet a threshold of grassroots donations, unlocking for Bloomberg to participate in a Feb. 19 debate in Nevada.
