De Blasio makes DNC debate despite lackluster donations
NY Post ^ | June 13, 2019 | Julia Marsh and Selim Algar

Posted on 06/13/2019 4:59:40 PM PDT by conservative98

Mayor Bill de Blasio secured a coveted spot for the first Democratic presidential primary debate later this month — despite his failure to get at least 65,000 donors.

The Democratic National Committee released the list of the 20 candidates who will partake in the back-to-back debates on June 26 and 27 in Miami.

The four contenders who did not make the cut are Montana Gov. Steve Bullock, Massachusetts Rep. Seth Moulton, retired Alaska Sen. Mike Gravel and Miramar, Fla., Mayor Wayne Messam.

NBC is expected to announce the lineup for each night on Friday morning. NBC will randomly select 10 candidates to go on each night. Candidates polling above 2% will be evenly split between the two events to assure there is no “undercard debate” or kids’ table.

De Blasio was just one of six candidates who did not meet the donor threshold.

He still qualified — along with Colorado Sen. Michael Bennet, former Maryland Rep. John Delaney, former Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper, Ohio Rep. Tim Ryan and California Rep. Eric Swalwell — by gaining at least 1% in national polls.

Probably paid somebody off with the money his wife stole from her taxpayer funded mental health scam.

I’m surprised that our pathetic Washington state governor made the cut. I thought he was polling at zero. He never does any work.

Why only 20? I thought there were a lot more candidates. That’s races and homophobe.

Good grief.

I do not recognise any of those names.

The progs must have the power of mind control to get anyone to vote for any of them.

Is there any remorse shown by any doctrinaire liberals in NYC to voted for DeBlasio?

NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio Gets Zero Votes for President in Major Iowa Poll
NBC News ^ | June 9, 2019 / FR Posted on 6/10/2019, 9:01:15 AM by Zakeet
A Des Moines Register/Mediacom/CNN Iowa Poll asked 600 registered voters who are likely to participate in the 2020 Democratic caucuses who their first and second choices for president were, the Des Moines Register reported. The poll asked 600 voters who are likely to participate in the 2020 Democratic caucuses about their first and second presidential choices De Blasio and Miramar, Florida Mayor Wayne Messam were the only candidates who weren't picked as anyone's first or second choice

DeBlobbio and wife.

"It wasn't easy competing against such a gaggle of Libtard idiots but I still managed to take the booby prize."

He seems to have no idea that he doesn't impress anybody. Tucker Carlson: the only one who doesn’t know he’s a dope is bill deblasio; comically incompetent.

......in his addled Commie mind, it makes sense for de Blasio run, because he is so hated, and screwed up so badly, he has zilch political prospects back in NY. He can raise (and pocket) oodles of money from know-nothing rubes, get on a bunch of TV shows, and his lesbian wife gets to wear more fashion-flop outfits and meet new girlfriends....

Blobbo won the mayor’s seat with 72% of the vote....after he had the number tattooed on his wife’s a** to double the thrill, DiBlobbio began making plans for the presidency.

But, Pray Tell, Where Does De Blasio Get The Money For His Eternal Presidential Campaign Trips?

NEWS CLIP BY Marcia Kramer, CBS News, April 5, 2019 / FR Posted by EinNYC
.....ethical questions are being raised about where he’s getting all the money to fund his cross-country presidential campaign trips.“On The Road Bill,” the mail-it-in mayor of New York City has been galloping all over the country to test the presidential waters with a suspicious campaign cash box that’s raising lots of eyebrows. “To me, that’s a real no-no,” Betsy Gotbaum of the Citizens Union said. Gotbaum is questioning how de Blasio is raising money for his “Fairness PAC” – the political action committee that is allowing the mayor to dream about running the country.“Is it the appearance of something wrong?” CBS2’s Marcia Kramer asked .......

REALITY CHECK—De Blobbio gave his wife $850 million tax dollars for (cough) mental health projects. But the imbecile can’t account for the 41 programs (money laundries) supposedly spending staggering amounts of tax dollars......

Blobbo and his fashion-flop wife enter GMA studios.

This is who greeted them

>

Bill Clinton officiates at oath-taking as Blobbo's family looks on.
