De Blasio probably want the homeless to fill up Trump’s hotel as a mean spirited attack on him.

Yep. Reminds me of a “we’re all in this together...hang tuff..we can do it” twitter post during the lockdowns. And some guy on his yacht had a selfie in the front of his boat near an exotic island.

Here is a recent review of the Lucerne Hotel on TripAdvisor-—

---

do not ever stay here again...this hotel has been turned into a shelter for drug addicts...they are filthy...they are defecating and urinating all over the place...shooting up drugs and doing drug deals in the streets....don’t ever stay here again...they are having sex in the streets and committing other lewd sex acts in public.

Liberals seem to display an astonishing lack of self awareness.

Many commenters said the men menaced pedestrians, urinated and defecated on the street, and used and sold drugs in the open.

On the other side are neighbors like Amanda Fialk, a clinical social worker, who said in an interview that she was appalled by “some pretty tone-deaf, racist, biased, privileged” things people have said on social media.

“To the best of my knowledge being homeless is not a crime, but we’re treating these people like criminals,” Fialk added.

Yeah, being homeless is not a crime, but urinating and defecating on the sidewalk, and using and selling drugs, are crimes. Or at least, they USED to be, before libtards like you started running things.

As for the locals who are upset about it:

Karma's a b*tch (or in this case, a filthy bum pissing and crapping all over your neighborhood when he isn't busy buying/selling/using drugs, and/or harassing you and your neighbors).
