Does Bloomberg have a chance in the primaries?

I saw Bloomberg say on The View today that if he runs for president in the next election it would be as a Democrat. Do you think he could win the primaries and then beat Trump if Trump runs again?

Not an exciting enough candidate but I’ll wait until all the players are in.
Bloomberg does have some appeal to a wide range of moderates, but it is more like, “he’s okay, but not my favorite.”
People know of him, but they don’t know him.
@Caravanfan This time, he again did not commit to running. He said a few years ago he couldn’t, because when they looked at it they determined an Independent can’t win. That he would just be seen as a spoiler.
@zenvelo I think that’s true that a lot of America doesn’t know much about him. I don’t like some things he did, but I would definitely consider voting for him. It would be interesting—two businessmen from NYC going head to head. Except Bloomberg actually is what I expect a NY, or even northeast, politician to be, socially liberal and fiscally moderate.
If Dems want 8 years of Trump, they should definitely run a “moderate” Corporate Candidate.
