What is Bill De Blasio's Problem?

He's a New York politician, so the answer to your question is, " Yes."

Agree OP. Not sure what he’s thinking. No one likes him even in progressive NYC - never mind middle America. Not sure if he is delusional or who is giving him money.

OP, have you been paying attention? All New York City mayors are insane assholes.

I think he has big ambitions and doesn’t see things looking up for him in NY so he’s just trying to bail whenever he can

He sucks and he’ll never win.

He knows that, despite his lack of popularity, New York's favorite son, Donald Trump, overcame obstacles to win. He knows that, in the long run, his fellow New Yorkers will come to his aid, so that there will be two beloved natives facing off for the Presidency, thereby cementing the city as the pre-eminent nurturer of greatness.

I have a better chance to beat him.

WATCH for De Blasio's performance at the first debate. He's glib, and will get mucho attention after it.

^ are you thinking good attention? NYC glibness doesn’t always go over so well in the rest of the country

He’s the biggest cuck in Christendom.

"So when did your wife choose not to be a lesbian any more Mayor? Was it before or after you chose to change your name from Warren Wilhelm?"

He is truly delusional and as someone said upthread, I can't imagine who, other than the RNC, is funding his Not Even A Snowball's Chance In Hell campaign.

If a New York mayor were to enter the race it should be Bloomberg. He’s someone dems could get behind.

He trashed Biden today and he really turned me off.

^ He was right. Biden will be toast by September.

On the contrary, R9, NYC glibness goes a LONG way in the rest of the country. It just doesn't go too far in New York.

R15, which is why you elected him twice. Nice try.

^ not from NYC

Isn't he stoned all the time? A NYC cab driver once told me Bill spends his mornings at the gym and then goes to a long lunch with pals....THEN he works. A little.

What tipped you off, R17?

Does he show hole at the gym?

He is tall and hot. Be nice to him.

R12: Bloomberg is a right wing Democrat who ran as a Republican so he didn't have to deal with the crowded Democratic mayoral primary. And he was the one who turned Manhattan into a theme park for the rich. Bloomberg needs to focus on gun control funding and running his company selling terminals and running his TV channel and magazine. This Dem would NEVER get behind him.

He got a second term because his challengers were, amazingly, somehow more of a joke than he is. He'll be gone soon and Corey Johnson will be elected.

He's only going through with this sham presidential bid because he thinks universal Pre-K will get him the DoE Cabinet slot. Sadly even this jamoke will be better than Betsy DeVos but only because he is stupid and not evil.

R15 if you’re thinking of trump, that rutting orange warthog is hardly glib .... more like unhinged and incoherent

R24, try to follow along. This thread is about Bill de Blasio.
