MTA exec accuses De Blah of being out of touch with subway safety fears

[NYPOST] Mayor Comrade Bill de Blasio

...cryptocommie mayor of New York and for some reason a Dem candidate for president in 2020. Corrupt and incompetent, his qualifications for office seem to consist of being married to a black woman, with whom he honeymooned in Cuba. He has a preppy-looking son named Dante, whose Divine Comedy involved getting his back hair up when a police car drove past him slowly. New Yorkers voted for him, so they deserve him...
’s hulking height and security team leave him out of touch with the reality of subway safety, Interim Transit President Sarah Feinberg said as she continued the drumbeat to get more cops underground.

"He’s a 6-foot, 7-inch man walking around the subway system with armed security, right? That’s just not how customers go through life," Feinberg told WABC-TV’s Bill Ritter in a pre-taped interview that aired Sunday morning.

"It’s not just about security, frankly, it’s about that size and what you bring to any situation," she said. "That is not what women feel. That is not the vulnerable feel. That is not what our older population feels. That is not what an essential worker who’s getting in at Parsons and coming in for an hour, that is not what they feel."

The comments were recorded on Thursday, the MTA said — the day before a string of subway slashings across Manhattan left multiple people injured and one person blinded in one eye.

After Friday’s attacks, Feinberg challenged the mayor to "wake up," while repeating her mantra that more cops are needed underground.

But City Hall has insisted the subways are safe — while blaming the MTA for attempting to politicize the issue.

In her WABC interview, Feinberg praised Police Commissioner Dermot Shea, a de Blasio appointee, and the NYPD for adding officers in recent days — but said she was "frustrated" with the mayor himself for batting away her concerns about public safety.
