De Blasio?

Looking at the results in 2017, he won the primary by 60 percentage points. He won the general by 40 points.

Saw this video the other day that someone took while driving through Manhattan and almost every business is boarded up


Most, if not all, of those are boarded up thanks to the Burn Loot Murder crowd.

While I'm not one to mourn the woes of NYC, 13k apartments in a city of 26 million is nowhere near a lot... But it is an interesting trend.

You could get around anywhere to your Bama bar
Don’t gotta live in a trash neighborhood full of non target schools 23year olds that work as recruiters with 5 other roommates

ETA: what is the Bama bar?

Where'd you pull that 26 million number from? Think Manhattan is something like 1.5-2 million people.

My gf at the time lived in Brooklyn, I was high as giraffe pussy, and felt like going somewhere a little more trashy. Plus her best friend and husband lived in the LES and he showed me around. I believe I watched the 2017 Bama-LSU game there.

Jesus Christ man!
Lucky you got out alive!

Never understood why anyone would live in places like that
Just pay up to live in a nice neighborhood
It’s not hard!

Anyone with any sense that lives in any major metropolitan city should be fleeing for their lives right now - NYC, Seattle, SF, LA, Chicago, Minneapolis, - all of them.

She did Teach For America in Bessemer, then worked for their office. Ended up going to NYU law about a year after we started dating. Long distance and significant political disagreement (very amicable disagreement, though) made it a non-starter over the long term. She wanted me to go from UA to Columbia or NYU and live there for ~10 years. I said nah. Still good friends, though.
