Bill de Blasio: “We are in a whole new world now and this is a reality we have to face.”

I have mixed views. But I think the way you’re describing him, you could’ve been talking about Donald Trump, honestly. Cozies up to dictators, says extreme things. C’mon.

We need him because in his heart and in his bones he cannot accept a city that prices out the people who built it and keep it running.

At a time when Donald Trump is cutting SNAP benefits, gutting Medicaid, and once again leaving working people out to dry, the need for an unwavering fighter in City Hall has never been higher.

He understands as a local elected official how important public safety is to people, and it’s not going to help him achieve his economic agenda if the city isn’t safe.
