They have/had a disgraced former governor and a millennial socialist jihadist that’s never had a job as the front runners. Is there not a NY born and bred businessman willing to step up and throw their hat into the ring?

The Democrats have no bench. They are not interested in developing younger talent because they don’t tolerate dissent. They can’t find enough people who will fall in line 100%.

Last mayor they had that was worth a damn, was Guiliani.

New York City is only an American city geographically.

The 'go through the ringer' bullshite of current American politics is not something normal professional people want to subject themselve to anymore is what I am guessing. So, this is what you get instead.

I think you’re right. This is particularly true on the left where the radicals have taken over the party and their traditional base has moved to the right. If you want to be a candidate you have to appeal to the loons and normal people don’t want to deal with that bullshite.

If he was actually a “jihadist” you might have a point. Instead you are just parroting the racist tropes of right wing propagandists.

Racist?


Did he have vent the word jihadi or was that done by your death cult loving Muslim friends?

They hate him due to being a jihadist and you hate Mayor Adams because he’s black, just differing opinions.

You are too stupid to figure what auto correct did.




But I understand the need to deflect. Anything to defend your child raping, goat humping jihadist allies

No offense, but I don't think you gave that question enough thought. What would be the point of running?

New Orleans is about to elect another great entrepreneur, much like the current mayor. You could ask the same question about any thriving metropolis, like Memphis, Baltimore, St. Louis, Oakland, etc.
