New York mayor on Germany trip: Trump doesn't represent Americans
MSN Washington Post ^ | July 8, 2017

Posted on 07/08/2017 7:00:48 PM PDT by SMGFan

Facing widespread criticism over his decision to fly to Hamburg just after the shooting death of a Bronx police officer, New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio said Americans’ views don’t align with President Trump’s and need to be represented abroad.

While the national governments will probably only make limited progress, the rest of us don’t have that choice. If we make only limited progress we’ll only be going backwards,” de Blasio told Bloomberg before speaking at a Saturday protest that coincides with the Group of 20 summit attended by Trump and other world leaders in Germany. “We almost have Washington as an island at this point, unrepresentative of the views of the American people on many levels, and that’s going to take a different kind of politics to address.”

You don’t represent assassinated cops.

Congratulations, you just made the list.

DeBlasio does not represent the United States abroad. By doing so he is violating law, 18 U.S. Code § 953, which carries a prison term of three years.

Lock him up.

The election of 2016 begs to differ.

No, Bill. YOU don't represent America. You only represent New York City, which is hardly a cross-section of Real America.

Your chauffeur is waiting to take you back to the penthouse.

Lock him up.

You're G-d d@mn right. He CANNOT be allowed to contradict official US foreign policy, not to mention that it's illegal. DeBlasio is NOT the President. He's the barely adequate mayor of a large, out of touch, declining city.

De Blasio fancies himself as a presidential contender. He has as much support across the fruited plain as does toenail fungus.

Mayor Bill de Blasio, please get a clue. Pres Trump is the President of America. Therefore, he does represent America.

So, grow up and act like a big boy. We tolerated the national disgrace of having a narcissist and Kenyan humiliate America and destroy our economy for 8 years. 125 Million souls out of the workforce, pallets of money used to buy the freedom of hostages held by terrorists, gun running to drug distributors, and countless other felonies - including wire tapping our candidates during the election.

Given a choice of Pres Trump or Obama - I will happily choose Pres Trump every time.

Hillary was their U.S. Senator.

Liberals are clueless morons who will elect anyone intent on the destruction of the U.S.
