Former New York City mayor Michael Bloomberg prompted more questions than answers when he released a campaign ad on Tuesday.
The brief ad shows Bloomberg asking: "Where is my ice cream?" After someone hands him a pint of ice cream, he acts pleased, saying: "Mmmh... Big Gay Ice Cream is the best."
The seemingly out-of-place video provoked a wide range of reactions, including from Twitter users who suggested Bloomberg was trying to pander.
"How did anyone think this was a good idea?" The Young Turks host Ana Kasparian tweeted.
Mike Bloomberg and his staff thought that this video of him making a gross sound while eating Ice Cream and saying "mmmm Big Gay Ice Cream is the best" was a good idea to use in public. That alone should disqualify him. So cringeworthy. These are not serious people. twitter.com/mike2020/statu…

Big Gay Ice Cream, which owns and operates three stores in New York City, did not immediately respond to Fox News' requests for comment.
The ad was one of a series of head-turning moves by Bloomberg since announcing his 2020 candidacy. On Wednesday, he released a video touting his support among dogs in New York, one day after a clip surfaced of him appearing to shake a dog's mouth rather than its paw at an event in Vermont.
During a Democratic primary debate earlier this month, Bloomberg's team tweeted a picture of meatballs on a plate and asked its followers to spot the one that looked like Bloomberg.
