In case you need more bad news on your Monday, Michael Bloomberg is officially running for president.
This formal announcement comes after the former New York City mayor had already registered with the Federal Election Commission and filed to appear on several states’ Democratic primary ballots, so it’s not exactly a surprise. Bloomberg ran his first TV ad on Sunday, and the billionaire businessman turned political activist is expected to self-fund his campaign.
