The festive spirit was momentarily tarnished when Mayo Bill de Blasio's name was called out so he could flip the switch. He was booed as he stood on stage by Jerry Speyer and his son Rob, who are the chairman and CEO of Tishman Speyer
Although de Blasio handily won re-election last year, his popularity has been dropping in recent months against the backdrop of newspaper headlines about alleged corruption in his administration.
The crowd jeering at de Blasio during the lighting quickly sent social media into a frenzy.

I guess they don’t like him anymore. When I saw the headline, I figured they were booing because they hate Christmas.

A 900 # crustal ornament topping the tree.
HOW is that ornament fastened?
Wind could dislodge it easily, I would think.

Eat your heart out, BLASIO...

RE: I guess they don’t like him anymore.
Regardless. They continue voting for him ( or I should say, 78% of New Yorkers don’t care who the Mayor is as these large number of eligible voters did not bother to vote in the last two mayoral elections ).

The people that boo’d are not the ones who voted for him, they are the conservatives in CA outnumbered and have to watch in horror as the leftist mob destroys everything.

NYC voted for him BY DEFAULT. TWICE.
78% of eligible NYC voters did not bother to vote.

“A 900 # crustal ornament topping the tree.”
I had the same thought. Obviously there’s a steel pole going up the middle of the tree.
Notice all of the blue illumination? Bright blue LEDs have transformed stage lighting.

Gotta be around 90. My friend’s mom went to school with him and she’s 88.

This corrupt man has cost the taxpayers more then $11 million in legal fees so far and that number was from a few years ago.

Agreed. If the election were redone tomorrow, he’d win again

Yet just last year they re-elected him. Should have voted for Nicole Malliotakis.
