Listen, the world may be on fire, but at least we have Giuliani describing the birth process of a marsupial to keep hope alive. I added a soundtrack because I had no other choice. So much WTF. #KangaRudy 😂

@jimstewartson @Gal_suburban I couldn't watch / listen to the whole thing.
I did, however, love the music.

Also, does his cap say BLUE? I thought Jan6 proved that the fascists didn't back the blue.

@pburke46 @Gal_suburban Yeah. The only people in NYC who like Rudy are cops because he gave them “Broken Windows” which allowed them to stop anyone and harass them just because they were in the wrong neighborhood or fit a certain profile.

@jimstewartson @pburke46 @Gal_suburban Most of us bought into the Giuliani mayorship because NYC was a disaster in the late 80’s early 90’s, I can vouch b/c I lived through it. But by the late 90’s, he was mostly despised. As Ed Koch said, on 9/10/2001, Giuliani would have lost his race for dog catcher. But the fact is, his public face around 9/11 pulled the city and the nation together. Like it or not, it’s true. But now his true colors show.

@LindaVT @jimstewartson @pburke46 @Gal_suburban my father-in-law's baby sister adopted Manhattan as her hometown after the Peace Corps.

I think 911 was Giuliani's high water mark.

Now he sounds and acts like someone who belongs in a "home.". While I was never a fan, it's sad to see what he has turned into.

@LindaVT @jimstewartson @pburke46 @Gal_suburban That's the thing, any mayor could have brought the city together by just being there on the behalf of the traumatized people. It wasn't exactly a stretch to think that was the right thing to do.
