New York TimesJane
and Ed Deacy, who both contracted the coronavirus this summer, say
their support for President Trump has only been bolstered by the way he
has handled the pandemic, and even by his own battle with Covid-19.
Their loyalty has also not been shaken by the president’s style in his
combative debate with Joseph R. Biden Jr. or at his recent rallies.
“I think he has done a phenomenal job dealing with an unknown virus,” Ms. Deacy said. “His record of the past three and a half years stands, and his accomplishments have not changed.”
Like most of their neighbors in their predominantly white, middle-class community, the Deacys voted for Mr. Trump in 2016, and enthusiastically intend to do so again on Nov. 3. But the Deacys do not live in a solidly red state.
They occupy an unusual slice of Trump country in New York City — Breezy Point, a private beach community in Queens where residents enjoy glimpses of the Manhattan skyline and display banners with slogans like, “Yes, I’m a Trump girl. Get over it!”
The community has long been home to police officers, firefighters and other first-responders, many of whom own modest houses that have been in their families for generations. They embrace Mr. Trump, who hails from a wealthier part of the borough, and hold fast to local traditions that include conservative politics and outspoken support for the police and the military.
Their fealty to the president stems in part from a prevalent view that the city outside their gates is being driven into the ground by hopelessly progressive Democrats under whose leadership crime is rising and respect for law enforcement is dropping. The enclave has few residents of color, and skepticism of the Black Lives Matter movement is widespread.
While Mr. Trump’s claim that New York City has fallen prey to anarchy may be greeted with scorn by many New Yorkers, it resonates in Breezy Point.

They're not wrong,also notice how the reporter has chosen to use the word "Fealty". That's a word you would use to define the relationship of a serf to his lord.. Just another example of the bias in the media...
“I think he has done a phenomenal job dealing with an unknown virus”
Ah yes. 210K+ disagree.
Keep America great! Four more years!
@Anon re:fealty
The NY Times can't help themselves.
I don't support nor do I want to re-elect Trump, but I stand by Breezy's residents right to back who they want and they shouldn't be subjected to condescending remarks or descriptions because of that. As those writes are ones to talk because this shows "fealty" to Biden by throwing shade at a town in such a fashion.
The Times are truly out of touch with the city they base themselves in.
It’s is very easy to say Biden would have done this done that with the coronavirus. We don’t know what he would have done? We sure know one thing listen to doctors not politicians about the virus. Besides Biden says he would shut down again if need be? Can we all truly afford that?
Ah yes. 210K+ disagree.
Based on what data? Heartattack + Covid = dead from Covid?
What do you expect from an Irish Catholic bible/Wall Street Journal packing community. Those f_cking people treat you like a leper if your over 30 and don't have 2 or more kids or if they don't see you in church.
Bunch of a'O !
I hear Breezy welcomed Liz Crowley there with a huge party proving this.

1. New York State
Governor Andrew Cuomo is moving forward with major infrastructure projects such as the
long-stalled Tappan Zee Bridge replacement and the much-needed redevelopment of LaGuardia
Airport. His administration has invested nearly $4 billion through the Regional Council and
Upstate Revitalization initiatives to jumpstart the economy and support local priorities for
development. Governor Cuomo has also restored fiscal discipline to state government – which
has enabled major investments in New York’s future. Governor Cuomo closed a $10 billion
deficit in his first budget, and state spending has grown by less than 2% each year since he took
office. The state also enacted its first ever property tax cap to keep communities affordable for
homeowners, renters and businesses, and every New Yorker now pays a lower tax rate than they
did before the Governor took office. Prior to serving as governor, Cuomo served as the Attorney
General of New York State. In 1997, he was appointed by President Clinton to serve as Secretary
of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Under his leadership, HUD was transformed from a
wasteful and inefficient bureaucracy to an effective driver of economic development and housing
opportunities. His work earned HUD the prestigious “Innovations in American Government
Award” from the Ford Foundation and the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard
University on three different occasions.
2.New York City

Maria Torres-Springer, President of New York City Economic Development Corporation
NYCEDC drives the physical transformation of New York City, completes major infrastructure
upgrades, and encourages the creation of new residential and commercial districts. NYCEDC
implements capital projects that facilitate the use of strategic and/or underutilized property for
economic development. It conducts real estate planning and feasibility studies, works with other
City agencies to develop area-wide development plans; guides development plans and projects
through necessary public approvals; negotiates public-private partnerships; and performs
financial analyses. NYCEDC is working with the City on a number of projects and initiatives,
including: Hunts Point, Bronx; Coney Island, Brooklyn; Sunset Park Waterfront, Brooklyn; 125th
Street, Manhattan; High Line, Manhattan; The Hub, Bronx; Downtown Jamaica Initiatives,
Queens; Gotham Center, Queens; Hunter’s Point South, Queens; Willets Point, Queens; east
River Ferry Service; New Stapleton Waterfront, Staten Island; St. George Terminal, Staten
Island; Kingsbridge Armory, Bronx; New York Wheel, Staten Island; Empire Outlets, Staten
Island; Seward Park, Manhattan; and Brooklyn Army Terminal, Brooklyn. NYCEDC works to
reactivate the City’s working waterfront and expand maritime and manufacturing employment to
stimulate the local economy – e.g., Sunset Park Vision Plan, provides a comprehensive
framework to maximize efficient movement of goods, grow industrial employment, promote
green practices, and balance neighborhood and industrial goals in an environmentally sustainable
manner. NYCEDC helps improve public access to waterfronts through projects like the East
River Waterfront Esplanade along a two-mile shorefront of Lower Manhattan.

Kamala and Joe corrupt to the bone marrow!
Election? What election? They belong in jail, Gitmo preferably. Traitor POS-s.
""NO BLACKS IN BREZZY""
No they have Irish Catholic's and that's worse.
Also more alcoholics per every 100 then most black neighborhoods.
More kids laundry hanging on clothslines every dam day then anyplace in New York.
$1 million dollar home to look at that and listen to hordes of kids, drive to 5 miles East to Beach 116 for slice of good coffee & doughnuts ?
The corrupt leadership wont allow bars, live music or liquor licenses. The dead Silence and deadness after 8PM any evening was haunting.
Like in the beginning of that movie "The Andromida Strain"
---No thanks I bailed & re-sold the fixer upper after 1 year and went back to the Noise, Gunshots, coloreds and Hispanics for 1/4 the cost then deal with all that BS.
The Irish people absolutely hated me.
As long as there is subway stop, Bodega, Bar, real Italian bread, pastry Pizza walking distance in good old Ridgewood I'll stay happy as a pig in shit.
Living out in the boonies turns people into mush, a good 85% of the housewives look just awful and sloppy out in Breezy and most the grass is weed & chigger infested, trampled and it aint green.

Why, you say that like it's a bad thing are you a poverty stricken satanist?
Our hero - Tony Bobulinski tells the truth. Thank him so much !
Stevie Ray said 210K DOA. That is true if you count every hospice, cancer and everyone with a pre existing condition that died. Most of those people had one foot at deaths door and the other one on a banana peel.
The reason the number is so high is the hospitals were getting 20 percent more for every patient that died from Covid from the government. So everyone that died was attributed to Covid.
The real number that died from Covid was around 7 percent. So do the math, not even 15,000 were Covid related. We will never really know the real number because of the shitty reporting system setup of reporting to the CDC.
It was all about cash flow to the hospitals.
@Angry Queens Taxpayor said... Get lost you fool !
"Why, you say that like it's a bad thing are you a poverty stricken Satanist?"
I'm an agnostic, and the same way politically.
Lets see: They didn't like my Motorcycle jacket, CB antenna on roof, 4th July fireworks, yard party's and my 1970s Ozzy/Black Sabbath tribute band practicing in my own dam house.
offered hamburgers, wine and garden tomatos. They laughed "just no drums or amplifiers after 10PM" and went away !
I was also deadly against a bunch of those self appointed Nazi's (most all related somehow) trying to form a HOA block association. St.Patricks day stink up the whole dame peninsula to high hell with whatever they were cooking.
F_ that and those Breezy people, no thanks you can have Breezy Point, its nepotism and convoluted vision of America!!

Let me put it in perspective.
FALSIFIED DATA! The nursing home deaths are real. You know useless eaters, have no value.
Breezy Point. The only place you can be in your own single family home and hear one next door neighbor straining on stool and your other next door neighbor beating his wife at the same time.
"Breezy Point. The only place you can be in your own single family home and hear one next door neighbor straining on stool and your other next door neighbor beating his wife at the same time."
Long Beach Long Island too !
Yep, The Irish dump by all the bars around Minnesota ave.
When I was in the band we often played in that gauntlet hell before it became to much of a hassle dealing with those people, the paper bag $$ payola taxes and the politics involved. At least the old Italians ran a clean ship at places like Speaks, OBI West out that way in the 1970s
In Long Beach Jewish live in the good "east" section and the worst live in the apartments above the commercial businesses west of the train station
Every last weekend in September the corrupt municipality has "St.Brendans day" which is actually a shill for half way to St.Patricks Irish day.
The bars make $100,000 dollars So much money being counted in the basements they need Brinks trucks with armed guards) I seen it !!
The place is warzone of plastic cups, spilled beer, overflowing porta-pottys and people vomiting and passing out in the street. The local hospital flooded with alcohol poisoning people like a war zone triage. Beat up wives, girlfriends violent dudes handcuffed to beds on gurneys spitting at nurses and cops. A drunken driver going wrong way on the Meadowbrook caused a huge accident decapitated a cops 12 year old daughter 15 years ago and this "Irish day"
shit is still going on. The problem: In Long Beach the Long Beach townie cops, their brothers, family's own most the bars. --Massive corruption between that local church, cops and the bars. I think its the same in Breezy Point, private police right? Include recent places turned complete shitholes like Montauk (Town of East Hampton)where you have the same thing going on between the bars, restaurants, cops and town leadership.
Like in the movie "Porkeys" with Porky and his 6 Irish brothers running the whole local police department including the Sherrif.
People in Queens don't know how good they have it despite all its problems.
Imagine paying $35K taxes for these assholes $250K+ salary's.
-Joe
Trump gave up a lot of money for his country.
Biden gave up his country for a lot of money.
If you don't support Kamala or Joe you're a Russian bot.
