Not this former NYer....
I'll take the stand with my southern conservative brethren.
Screw those pompous NY elitists...they have botched up NY so bad....it's like a foreign city to me. Wish a lot of my family would get out of there...most of them are conservatives too.
Likewise
Left Long Island after HS to enlist back in 1976. Since then only came back for visits a few times and when I travel for business to area. My family is still there (Nassau Co RINOs) although they whine about taxes and quality of life have not moved. House prices are ridiculous but they fall for the socialist bs every time.
