Bill de Blasio says people felt 'a little betrayed' by Democrats 'covering' for Biden
Fox News ^ | November 26, 2024

Posted on 11/26/2024 8:37:30 PM PST by MinorityRepublican

Former New York City mayor Bill de Blasio called on his party to "be more honest" after Americans felt "betrayed" over the Democratic Party keeping quiet on President Biden’s decline.

De Blasio joined a panel on CNN’s "The Situation Room with Wolf Blitzer" to offer more commentary on what was behind Vice President Kamala Harris and the Democratic Party’s resounding losses in the 2024 election.

He argued part of the problem was Harris being unwilling to separate herself from Biden, as well as the Democratic Party’s hesitation to criticize Biden until after he dropped out of the race.

"Let‘s be honest, we‘ve got to be more honest. Part of what happened here is the American people were pissed off that they felt the Democratic Party was covering for Joe Biden. They were already upset with Joe Biden on a substantive level, not always fairly, but they were on things like inflation. And people are hurting," de Blasio said.

"I‘ll take my share of the blame," he admitted. "I mean, I wanted to believe Joe Biden could make it through. He was a great president in many ways. I wanted to believe he could hang on, but it stood to reason that he should not continue as our candidate. It stood to reason that one term was right, and a lot of Democrats kind of kept their mouths shut. And I think people felt out in the country a little betrayed by that."

Shut that ignoramuses mouth. Note...all this post election chatter is their new strategy to forge a new lie as to their governance acumen. Free pub on the dying shows... they’ve got 4 years to develop a new phony identity...These clowns mouths will keep chattering away after they are pronounced dead of old age and natural causes.

Warren Wilhelm changed his name to Bill de Blasio to fool the voters.

Anyone who couldn’t see Joetato’s mental decline in 2019 needs to take a cognitive test themselves, Bill.
Stop pretending that anyone hid it from you.

This particular moron is so stupid that he doesn’t understand that demonrats as a collective are brainless idiots with zero capacity to think for themselves. Put a dead sewer rat at the top of the ticket, tell the morons to vote for it, and they will.

When people think of honesty, they think of Bill de Blasio.

I had totally forgotten about that piece of shiite. Now that I heard his name again, it put me in the wrong frame of mind.

Quite a few voters who live in blue cities voted for Trump because of mayors and governors like De Blasio. The quality of life in NYC plummeted during his admin. Not to mention he was lazy. Why ask him what went wrong with the Democrat campaign? He’s what’s wrong.

Rudy is elected mayor, cleans of the city, deals with 9/11, and leaves things in pretty good shape. Bloomberg (temporarily a Republican in order to use Rudy’s success to get elected) somewhat maintains Rudy’s success. After that, it’s been straight downhill. One can only wonder about the thought process of NYC voters who keep voting in dems to ruin the city.

It’s never the Marxist agenda and journey to utopia, NO.

It’s always the people implementing the agenda, they are, and always were, incompetents or senile....

"de Blasio called on his party to "be more honest".

The Democrats are either honest, or dishonest. This demonstrates that de Blasio knows that they are dishonest. There's no such thing as being "partially honest". Fixing that should be their most important task. That usually takes decades, and it starts with exposing and getting rid of the leaders that are liars.

If the Dem party became honest they would literally disappear as a political force...
