Good Riddance to NYC’s Worst Mayor Ever – Bill de Blasio: Goodwin
New York Post ^ | December 30, 2021 | Michael Goodwin

Posted on 12/30/2021 8:51:35 PM PST by nickcarraway

In his novel “Anna Karenina,” Tolstoy writes that “All happy families are alike; each unhappy family is unhappy in its own way.”

Something similar can be said about New York City mayors: Successful ones share policies and leadership traits, while the failed ones chart individual paths of doom.

Over the last five decades, Gotham has experienced both. The successful mayors — Ed Koch, Rudy Giuliani and Michael Bloomberg — stand tall because they took office in times of crises and turned New York’s fortunes around. They had their warts, but each left the city better off than when he started.

He was the Angela Merkle of New York City.
I hve no doubt if deBlasio could run for that office a 3rd time, he would win again. Those voters don’t seem to get the connection between their vote and their style of being governed.

The new mayor wants to continue the vaccine mandate nonsense. So Adams starts off like Bill DB.

And this communist dumb ass says he is seriously considering a run for the Governor of NY. He’s either a fool or he has the inside scoop on how to steal an election.

He was indeed an awful mayor, but he managed to stay out of prison, and some of them couldn’t manage even that.

A city of almost 9 million, only 1 million of them bother to vote in a mayoral election

Both DeBlahblah and Adams only pulled in 750,000 votes or less

I knew newyorkers are apathetic, but this is ridiculous

DeBlobbio had to move his final presser indoors b/c so many protesters showed up.

The de Blasios will walk off w/ $$billions.......

He cunningly gave his wife charge of four city agencies that overflowed w/ untraceable tax dollars. The careless wife promptly “lost” a $billion from a mental health fund.

W/ his dying gasp he’s still showing his hatred of taxpayers who made him filthy rich.

He’s attempting to silence parents critical of public education policies.

He would give the city’s Department of Education the authority to “discipline and remove” elected parents from Community Education Councils (CEC) — the city’s version of a school board — if they criticize the school district they are charged with holding accountable.

Right so far the new mayor is going to be the same as the old mayor when it comes to communism.

Good riddance! But... New Yorkers elected him. And even re-elected him. Go figure.

Why would he have to steal the election to win? It’s NY.. the same state that twice elected Cuomo.
