The prospects for a resurgence of the struggling chapeau industry should be getting a shot in the arm with as many as 24 Democrat candidates tossing their hats in the ring for the presidential nomination. And that’s just the latest count. But the latest contestant for this monumental but thankless job is none other than one of our own, the inept mayor of the Big Apple……Bill De Blasio. Don’t get us wrong. We and about 60% of other New Yorkers would like someone to take him off our hands and out of Gracie Mansion, but just the thought of him occupying the White House and corrupting the entire nation, is downright scary. The frightening part is that he really thinks he is capable of dealing with the rest of the world when to us, his captives within the city boundaries, he’s no more than a bumbling idiot.
We’ve struggled for years under his and his wife, Chirlane’s rule and we just found out more bad news. That the program she started 4 years ago, the ThriveNYC scheme funded by 900 million $ of taxpayer money to improve our town’s mental health, has disappeared. Since its inception, the organizers of that questionable boondoggle have largely failed to keep records and appear to have accomplished nothing. And Chirlane was selected by her loving spouse to run this monumental undertaking although her, call it what you will, claim to fame is as a black/lesbian/activist poet, political speech writer and wife to Hizzoner.
So, under her “leadership” nearly one billion bucks are gone like the cleanliness and efficiency of our subway system, like the destruction of our acclaimed three elite high schools that have sent off tens of thousands of kids to better the world community and of course, the stupidity of running Amazon out of town by AOC. All of the above and more given to you by the De Blasio family team of incompetents who might perhaps even might be labeled criminals by an honest prosecutor if one can be found to dig into this mess of their administration.
Some might complain that his campaigning around the country will deprive us of his “leadership.” Hank Sheinkopf, a veteran Democrat consultant might have hit the nail on the head with his comment on the matter: “New York city residents have never felt that he’s been involved in the grind that makes NYC government work. So it doesn’t matter. The bureaucracy is running this place. He’s not running it.” So… do we ever miss the likes of Mayors Guiliani and Bloomberg!!!! Our thought bears repeating. As incompetent as De Blasio is as our own Mayor and as much as we’d like to see him go, the thought of him as president is our nightmare. Don’t let it happen!!
