It is just too fustrating at this point, and dangerous for the Jews left
in the city. This man was supported by the far left anti-semites that
have overrun NY, with support of Gulf money. The city is flooded with
Muslims... literally millions of them and we are see it shake out in the
polls and the city government. That is in addition to the total
disarray that we are suffering.
I take the train daily from Brooklyn to the Bronx, and the ride is
killing me. The vaping and smoking on the train makes my lungs inflamed
and pushing to me use my nebulizer now all the time. Then there is the
constant violent, homelessness, fair jumping, and the police do NOTHING.
They refuse to enforce any laws, which makes them worthless.
I need to get out of NYC and I am so STUCK here, being swallowed alive
by these bigots and leftwing hatemongers.

Government owned supermarkets is right out of Maduro’s playbook. Free transportation when the MTA is drowning in debt, and rent control??? He is out of his mind.
