New Yorkers elected him....

and he now has high approval like his fellow Dem Cuomo (!!)!

You NYC voters wanted a puppy and said you would take care of him, feed and bathe him. So do it.
Pay your own way, fools.

Sounds like you have a plan that Willie the fake Frenchie will try to get passed by the NYC government.

That’s why the new Pelosi pork bill includes $1 trillion in federal funds to bail out mismanaged Democrat cities and states.

And historians wonder why massive cities in Central America lost their populations overnight.

Next you know he’ll send a bill to the federal government for “leasing the Javitz Center” to make it into an emergency bed hospital.

his city requires $7.5 billion in federal aid to get back on track after being crippled by the coronavirus pandemic that has killed thousands of residents and shut down much of the city's economy

You know, the whole country has suffered. Every city and state has suffered. The people have suffered enough of their buffoonery. These politicians need to be told to go stuff it. Force the hard decisions. If the people want to keep their idiotic tax and spend policies go for it but don't ask other suffering and sacrificing people to sacrifice more just for your own selfishness.

35 million people have lost their jobs; none of them work for the government of course. Now he wants to tax the unemployed to pay the salaries of the employed. What a jackal.

Looks like some pension funds may be very disappointed. Maybe they should never have been promised in the first place. Guess some of the “hopefuls” need to be reminded that many in this country never were promised any kind of pension & we worked hard too.

I'm getting tired of the rest of the country bailing out New York City for its own stupidity.

1. I love these leftist mayors who dogged the president now say they need the federal govt to help save them
2. Funny how he doesn’t ask the state of NY for the money
