Mayor Bill de Blasio was booed and jeered by spectators as he marched in the citys 100th annual Veterans Day Parade on Monday.
One parade-goer wearing an American flag sweatshirt and a mask depicting President Trump partially on the top of his head shouted F-bombs as Hizzoner walked past.
Other onlookers called the mayor Comrade de Blasio and urged him to go home.
De Blasio waved an American flag and appeared unfazed by the taunts and mocking as he walked the 1.2-mile route along Fifth Avenue from 24th Street to 46th Street.
Among the thousands of spectators at the parade was Cathy Lesser, 53, who said she booed de Blasio as loudly as I could.
He is a moron and doesnt represent the heart of New York. He is a poor excuse of a leader and a man. He should step down and allow someone with integrity and honor to lead the city, said Lesser, a Huntington resident.
Before the parade kicked off at noon, de Blasio made remarks at the marchs opening ceremony at Madison Square Park after President Trump kicked off the event.
We have to aim higher if were really going to honor our veterans, de Blasio said during the ceremony, adding, We honor some great people today.
De Blasio spoke of his World War II veteran dad who committed suicide, saying, He was a man who needed support, needed help, never wanted to ask for it.
After he marched, the mayor told reporters that he was glad Trump kept it non-political when he spoke at Madison Square Park.
Im glad he treated it the way I think wed all like to see things be again a little more normal, a little more respectful of everyone, said Hizzoner.

Must be a special kind of person to be a politician. They let those boo and jeers bounce off them like they were made for someone else. The only thing I can figure is that they don’t give a crap.
They elected him, and will do so again.......................
They don’t................
Hey, let’s not defame morons by including this assclown. He is more along the lines of whale excrement.
New Yorkers should be booing themselves for electing that turd Twice and then giving us Occasional Cortex.
I bet he feels this way....
Caligula: [to an unruly crowd] “If you only had one neck, I’d hack it through!”
Yet they elected him twice.
Exactly, they complained about him during his first term yet he easily wins a 2nd
See, he is uniting New Yorkers!
He doesn’t care. When running for president, he will get the biggest ego boost ever, plus millions of dollars will pour in to help him become president and destroy this country like the filthy White-hating marxist that he is.
Now he knows how the Knicks feel.
He was at a Veterans parade. It is likely there was a high percentage of sane people there, and they booed him. He would have gotten a friendlier reception at a gay parade or an abortion rally.
But they’ll vote for him again next election.
From what I understand, he had no opposition. And he was “elected” with a record low turnout. But he was still elected. This is what happens when the GOP just rolls over and doesn’t put up any candidates. So New Yorkers stay home and a tiny minority turns out to vote him in and they feel like they can’t do anything about it.
Seems like he’ll keep in office for a while - with no real support.
