Nicco@rbreich as a Dutchman I cannot objectively comment on NY. But I can completely align with your views. Right now in the Netherlands we have the same dynamic: right wing bullshit pushing the country (which by the way is not much bigger than the city of NY😀) into the same abyss you were describing. Meanwhile the ‘old guard’ of the left wing party (called ‘liberals’ in the US) are resisting a new course for action. Meanwhile their sobstories have full access to the media.
Bill Adams@rbreich Corporate Democrats don't fear Republicans they fear progressive Democrats. This has been clear for decades.
Ed Sanders@rbreich
That New York City (Democratic) voters looked at a disgraced, old political hack with personal & professional baggage offering them little more than increasing the size of the police state and said, "Yeah, No" seems to be somewhat surprising to people with more money than sense.
Not surprisingly, their next move is to gravitate to a political hack with personal & political baggage offering little more than increasing the size of the police state.
