Chris, the scenario I alluded to above has a very good chance of creating a Trump presidency.
Trump is a candidate that very many voters are excited about. This is far from true of Hillary. Her support may (or may not) be broader than Trump's but it isn't as deep. It isn't deep at all so, given a non-Trump alternative like Bloomberg, many of her supporters can be expected to jump ship. On the other hand, since Bloomberg wants REALLY strict gun controls and even rules about how big a Coke you can buy, no Trump supporter would dream of supporting him over Trump. For that matter, few if any mainstream Republicans would either.
So, you have a Republican with a rabid following and a Democrat with a rather unenthusiastic one. So, a Bloomberg candidacy would draw supporters almost exclusively from Hillary. That could easily give Trump the win.
