Before New York Mayor Bill de Blasio even officially announced his presidential bid on Thursday, New Yorkers were already pleading for him give up his White House ambitions.
De Blasio, who has been mayor of Americas largest city since 2014, is now one of the 25 Democratic candidates seeking a presidential nomination, despite the lack of support from his own constituents. His approval rating sits at 42 percent, and an April poll found that 76 percent of New York City voters did not want de Blasio to run for president. In March, a Monmouth poll found that de Blasio was the only Democrat asked about with a negative favorability.
While one would think his socialist policies, such as universal pre-k and the New York City Green Deal, would make him popular among his progressive-leaning constituency, he is consistently mocked for blunders and disingenuous attempts to relate to the working class.

I would love to see him get the nomination.
Imagine how much fun President Trump could have running against him.
Then how was he elected Mayor of NYC.....TWICE?
Bill Da Blahzero.
RE: No One Likes You, Bill De Blasio
Then why did he get re-elected by a landslide?
He was elected by the people who live in NYC
The bridge and tunnel people who spend their days there have to deal with him and his policies. They live in Westchester, Long Island , Connecticut NJ. They are the ones who do not like him.
Suffolk County (east half of LI) is Trump country actually
It's NYC
All this strong knee jerk opposition to him before even announcing could knock him out of running. Props to everyone doing Kamalas work for her.
Because (D) + $$ + NYC.
#DoTheMath
So is staten island
You mean Hillary’s work.
Hillary’s smart, she knows none of these clowns have a chance, let them beat each other up while she waltzes in amongst the ruins.
I hope he is the nominee. Trump will give him a suitable nickname, and he will be toast.
“Then how was he elected Mayor of NYC.....TWICE?”
There is a lot of voter fraud in NYC elections.
Well it’s not as if his opponents are much better.
Someone must be giving him money or else why bother? Maybe he just embezzled it.
RE: Because (D) + $$ + NYC.
Well, this refutes the title of the article don’t you think?
Plus black lesb. wife and support of Sharpton
“Well its not as if his opponents are much better.”
Voter fraud and very weak opponents.
Which is the number one reason Democracy is dying in this country.
Good people just simply don’t want to get involved, and so, it’s left to guys like this.
Duh, Commieo...
