BDB used Mets games to look like an everyman


From CBS 2:

In an August 27 email, de Blasio said, “Chirlane, Chiara will go to the Mets/Red Sox game Friday night – in very cheap seats… I will go the Sat game with queens bp (Borough President) Melinda Katz. I will go to the Sunday game with Queens councilmembers.”

Outside consultant Jonathan Rosen, of BerlinRosen, sometimes referred to as “Jro” in the emails, weighed in on August 28 with a political “tweak.”

“Can we also frame this as how BdB (Bill de Blasio) does his politics. Some pols do dinners and drinks… but he’s working the Queens delegation and the BP over Mets games. It’s work – him doing politics well,” he wrote.

Wonder if he ordered a hot dog and ate it with a knife and fork like he did with the pizza a few years ago...

What a poseur.

This is only the beginning, since lame ass local news only devoted seconds to real news about civic matters, and these are just the machinations to ward off Ms. Kramer.

The dropping of this long awaited and belated release of emails on Memorial day weekend is expected, as is the uncanny timing of the acquittal of that prick in Long Island who was involved with de Faustio's event caterer and money bundling donor Harendra Singh.

What would have been demands for the mayor's resignation for these scandals is now being shoved in your faces. de Faustio's dealings is the co-mingling of government and business. This is fascism. Even if it's warm and caring and being administered with a bleeding heart.

The Baz is an ‘every man’ if your definition of ‘every man’ is being a Sandinista socialist who harbors illegals, has a personality of a rock, and has the hubris to ruin every borough (minus his Gracie Mansion hood of course) with homeless hotels, which decays the quality of life for REAL, tax paying, working, LEGAL residents of the City I once love. Good job, Warren frigging Wilhelm from Nicaragua via bum-fuck Massachusetts.

He hates everything about NYC. If he cared , he never would have let the subways fall into Hell's hole. He only cares about giving people the freedom to smoke, urinate, shoot up, and anything else, wherever they please.

Typical of any politician. Remember how Hillary Clinton 'remembered' her Yankee fan roots when she was running for Senate in 2000?

Do these clowns really think a person would vote for a politician based on which team they support/root for? Really?

Also reminds me of David Patterson sitting in prime seats for a playoff at Yankee Stadium and having no idea that would be considered a reportable political donation.

It just makes me admire Trump more. He has pulled back the veil off of all of these do-nothing poseur's. The 'political elite' is just another group of useless idiots with their hands out at every turn.

Maybe he'll take a ride in a mandated Bike Lane in Queens and get blindsided by a driver not looking before opening their car door.
That'd be Justice.

What kind of BS is this? This is the second time the Mayor's been in Queens since reelection.

The chick carrying his bag looks thrilled to be doing so

My grandfather once told me that our biggest mistake is to think that everyone else thinks like "you" do.
If so, then DumBassio would not be re-elected by a wide margin. I keep explaining to people that it is a game of "my crook is better than your crook". Everyone thinks that my party (Dem or Rep) cares about "me", but as grandpa said, that is my mistake.

That photo doesn't look like Queens. It looks like Manhattan. Maybe he just though the was in Queens and got all confused? You know, one borough looks like another after a while.

Which woman is not thrilled to be carrying the bag? There's two women with bags. The sun is really rising on Womyn's Rights yess siree. Crooks used to have bag boys and now they have bag girls.

The emails reveal BeBlasio to be the kind of nasty self centered jerk we all thought he was.

The women with bags are likely carrying the monthly sanction's of pot & diazepam wrapped up in undergarments. It gets heavy and make them nervous.
