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.”

By "America" he must mean everyone in the right-hand column. Image and video hosting by TinyPic Trump won 30 states and a lion's share of counties outside of our largest urban cesspools.

NYC elected him.

He thinks NYC is America?

It reminds me of the NYC entertainment journalist who could not understand how Nixon was elected because she did not know anyone who voted for him.

Wilhelm de Blasio represents the Leftist Trash of NYC who put him in office.

If this prick is representative of NYC people then they richly deserve everything they’ve gotten and are going to get. A perfect follow up to the wretched Blomberg.

De Blasio won in 2013 because the NYC GOP was decimated under Giuliani and Bloomberg, and a weak candidate Joe Lhota ran.

If not for Anthony Weiner or Christine Quinn, De Blasio would have been a nonentity and obscure.

This is the goofy dude who is married to a black lesbian. Seriously.

It takes a lot of nerve or a lack of intelligence to claim that someone else doesn't represent America when you are a circus freak show yourself.

It’s time New York had a mayor who cares about the people.

Comrade DeBloodio’s opponent needs to make an ad (or more than one) on this.

Keep showing Americans...AND ALL OF THE WORLD...who you ARE, ya B@stard East Coast Socialist!

And it’s going to be DELICIOUS for the REST of us.

De’Stupido doesn’t represent anyone further east than NYC and I’m wondering if they even want him around anymore. He’s a particularly nasty piece of work for sure.
