Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass has been epically trolled as she cruised through Chinatown in a convertible during Lunar New Year celebrations.
The LA Mayor was perched atop the vehicle Saturday, smiling and waving while wishing spectators a happy New Year.
“Today is the day we all contribute and show our support for Chinatown,” Bass says in one video. But the tone quickly turned sour.
A man filming the mayor — who appeared to identify himself as a journalist — pressed her about city budget cuts and crumbling roads, accusing her of “defunding our city.”
“Make sure you vote against Karen Bass,” the man shouted. “We want Karen Bass gone. The year you leave office, Karen.”
He then urged others nearby to join in and “boo” the mayor as her motorcade rolled forward.
In another clip, Bass’s convertible is filmed moving down a mostly empty stretch of road flanked by aides and security, while critics yelled that she was ignoring questions from journalists.

I bet she practices.
“Karen Bass was talking to imaginary people — just to avoid answering questions. It was really pathetic.”
I bet she practices.

In front of the mirror.
She has a lot of nerve to even show her face. Her aides and advisors have to be a bunch of blockheads.
She probably surrounds herself with people just like her so they see no issue with this
Where’s a water balloon filled with ‘very polluted water’ that could be ‘accidentally’ catapulted in her direction?
I can’t stand people like her.
She could’ve pulled an Ilhan Omar and had a staged “attack” planned for her ride. A missed opportunity.
Probably get you 20 years. She’s hardly worth it. Maybe if was 30 days in lockup.
Yep. She is a ‘Protected Dignitary’ dont’cha know?
She’ll probably use a highly edited version of that “Waving & Smiling” car ride in her campaign commercials.
As Woody Allen said in Annie Hall, ""What I wouldn't give for a large sock with horse manure in it!"
Ha-ha! That’s a good one. A very satisfying image.
Here’s to a Free & Active Imagination!
The moon would have come out if I was there
The fact that she goes unmolested given what she has done says more about the gutlessness of Americans than anything else recently.
Such a shame what commies did there. My family came from Scotland and Poland. First to Canada than LA. Commies destroy everything.
After receiving training in Marxist guerrilla tactics in Cuba Karen Bass should know all about crumbling roads and budget cuts.
Grandiose narcissists can become angry when criticized and need constant attention. Grandiose narcissism is a pattern characterized by exaggerated feelings of superiority, entitlement, self-importance, an obsessive need for admiration, and a lack of empathy toward others.
People with narcissistic grandiosity have a highly inflated sense of self-importance. They crave admiration and tend to make social situations all about them. Unlike vulnerable narcissists who hide their insecurities behind defensiveness, grandiose narcissists see themselves as superior, exude confidence, and use their charm to get what they want from others.
A grandiose narcissist is someone who displays an excessive sense of self-importance—and they're not at all subtle about it. Their haughtiness is *highly* visible, even showy. They're not just propping themselves up, either. Their inflated sense of self-esteem often comes at the expense of relationships or activities that would benefit them in other ways. They rely heavily on others to validate their importance, even deceiving others to gain the admiration and recognition they need.
Grandiose narcissists tend to be manipulative, exploitative, and lacking in empathy for those around them.

An explanation would help.
If you require one, no, it wouldn’t.
So? They’ll just replace her with someone even worse.
