Did Bill de Blasio Just Become the Most Hated Man in America?

As the riots and destruction across America continued for the fifth day after protests originally over the death of George Floyd devolved into looting and destruction in Minneapolis, New York Mayor Bill de Blasio despicably attempted to score political points by blaming President Donald Trump for the “atmosphere” of “tension and hatred and division” behind the protests. Yet he managed to alienate the anti-Trump left a few hours later by refusing to condemn police who drove a cruiser into a crowd of protesters.

“I’ve not seen the specific words coming out of the White House or actions but I can tell you this, and this is the blunt truth: The president of the United States helped to create this atmosphere, and that’s the tragedy here,” de Blasio said in a press conference on Saturday.

“It doesn’t matter what your party affiliation is, it doesn’t matter what you think of President Trump, there’s been an uptick in tension and hatred and division since he came along, it’s just a fact,” the mayor added. “And it’s not the reason for any specific act but it has helped to poison the atmosphere. So we’ve got to get back to leaders talking about unity.”

DeBlassio has no redeeming value as a living thing. A rattlesnake has more. At least a rattlesnake eats vermin.

The riots are the product of the lockdown.

I have a theory on this election business and why/how the same scum keeps rising to the top!

It’s simple: When a local government is completely blue, (leftist scum) including the Supervisor of Elections ...

Well, you can see where this is going?

I understand. And agree.

Cities across the country set curfews to stem the violence, including: Minneapolis, Chicago, Los Angeles, Atlanta, Denver, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Seattle, Cleveland, Columbus, Portland, Miami, Milwaukee, Salt Lake City, and Rochester.

Curfews exacerbate the problem if you lack the manpower or the resolve to enforce them.

“I’ve not seen the specific words coming out of the White House or actions but I can tell you this, and this is the blunt truth“

The REAL blunt truth is, the words and actions Trump is accused of are all made up innuendo and lies by the likes of DeBlasio. These people are responsible for all of these riots, as they continue to stoke the fires of racism, with lies and complete abandon of decency to advance their power.

"The riots are the product of the lockdown. "

Wouldn't surprise me.

"The president of the United States helped to create this atmosphere

De Blasio desperately deflecting to avoid becoming the next victim of arson. What's his worth in carbon credits?

No, he didn’t just become that...

Blue America is very sick. From the piss poor leadership to the fools who elect them.

You mean he wasn’t?

Everyone loved him until he put an R next to his name.
