Bloomberg promoted his documentary “Paris to Pittsburgh,” about the United State’s withdrawal from the Paris Agreement’s efforts to combat climate change and blasted what he sees as the Trump administration’s rolling back of progress in addressing the issue.
“How can you look out the window and see all the wildfires,” among other occurrences, and still believe that “nothing is changing?” he said.

Bloomberg announced in October that he re-registered as a Democrat after being an Independent and, before that, a Republican. Last week the billionaire reportedly held meetings with top Iowa Democrats during a multi-city tour through the first state that has a say in a presidential race.
President Donald Trump mocked Bloomberg’s presidential ambitions in the New York Post last month, dismissing the former mayor with a derisive nickname.
“I’d love to run against Little Michael,” Trump told the Post. “I’d love to run against Michael. He’s been fighting me hard. He spent $100 million against me – that didn’t work. He spent a lot of money last night against Cindy Hyde-Smith. That didn’t work out so well.”

After the fellow billionaire criticized Trump’s business credentials at the Democratic National Convention in 2016, Trump fired back on Twitter, saying Bloomberg’s final term as mayor was a “disaster.”
However, Trump and Bloomberg weren’t always at odds. The president vocally supported the mayor’s administration, tweeting in 2012 that Bloomberg was “doing a great job.”
Bloomberg said Friday that he will make a decision regarding the presidential bid early next year.
