I don't understand why Bloomberg didn't run as a Republican

I don't understand why Bloomberg didn't run as a Republican.

He holds right of center policies, with stop and frisk he would have some appeal to those with strong feelings about race and of course he would appeal to those seeking to minimize their taxes.

He could have tried to purchase the GOP. He has 50x more $ than Trump.

But as a democratic candidate? Incredibly poor awareness of how we are not looking for a richer guy to purchase the office.
