[laughter] mr. bloomberg: back then, i warned donald trump was not fit for office and in 2018, i worked to help flip the house, 21 seats. [chanting] mr. bloomberg: that's all right. [chanting] mr. bloomberg: ok, we'll get over it. [chanting] mr. bloomberg: thank you, thank you. the easiest thing to do is just wait them out. anyways, we put 21 seats in the house and that put nancy pelosi in as speaker.

[applause] mr. bloomberg: now, i got in this race 10 weeks ago because i was deeply concerned donald trump was on track to win the election and i couldn't just sit by and let that happen. our campaign is getting great response all over america. we're running a campaign f

mr. bloomberg: how was your night last night? [laughter] mr. oomberg: the real winner last night was donald trump. because i worry that we may very well be on the way to nominating somebody who cannot win in november. if we choose a candidate who appeals to a small base like senator sanders, it will be a fatal error. we need democrats and independents and republicans to win. [applause and cheers] mr. bloomberg: that was the coalition that propelled democrats to success in the midterms and what we need to win in november. that won't happen with pie-in-the-sky promises and proposals that will bankrupt the country. voters don't want empty talk, they want leadership. they don't want handwaving and finger-pointing. they want common sense ideas that can become real policy. this election is too important, the stakes are too high and we can't afford to get it wrong. we are here today -- thank you, yes.

mr. bloomberg: no.t to cut it back as much as you can, but i think if we learn something from 9/11, people plan things overseas and execute them here. we have to be able to stop terrorism, and there's no guarantees that you will be able to do it, but we have to have some troops in places where terrorists congregate, and to not do so is just irresponsible. we should not be fighting wars that we cannot win. we should only go to war as a last resort -- nobody argues with that -- but this is a world, and if we have not learned that after 9/11, i do not know what is going to teach us what to do. we have to do something, and i think the budget that -- one of the things that i've seen recently convinced me that the military today is better prepared than they have been an awful long time, and with the moneys they are spending on the war, weapons that we need for the next war and not the last, a common mistake that they are not making now. but they are doing a good job. gayle: mayor buttigieg, i would like to go
