De Blasio: People Will Die Because Trump ‘Will Not Lift a Finger to Help’
2020-03-23
[BREITBART] Sunday on NBC’s "Meet the Press," New York Mayor 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...
accused President Donald Trump
...dictatorial for repealing some (but not all) of the diktats of his predecessor, misogynistic because he likes pretty girls, homophobic because he doesn't think gender bending should be mandatory, truly a man for all seasons......
of not lifting "a finger to help" with the coronavirus
...the twenty first century equivalent of bubonic plague, only instead of killing off a third of the population of Europe it kills 3.4 percent of those who notice they have it. It seems to be fond of the elderly, especially Iranian politicians and holy men...
breakout.

De Blasio said, "The truth is, and New Yorkers and all Americans deserve the truth, it’s only getting worse. April and May are going to be a lot worse. Right now, we are a third of the cases in the country. That’s going to get worse. We’re about two thirds or more of the cases in New York State. That’s going to get worse. But the president of the United States is from New York City, and he will not lift a finger to help his hometown. And I don’t get it. I don’t get it. Right now, I have asked repeatedly for the military to be mobilized for the Defense Production Act to be used to its fullest to get things like ventilators so people who can live who would die otherwise, I can’t be blunt enough. If the president doesn’t act, people will die who could have lived otherwise.”

#9  I think Trump made it pretty clear that he no longer considers New York City to be his hometown. Also note that in the same announcement he made it clear that de Blasio is one of the reasons why.

Kinda like what Gerald Ford said to the city in 1975.

Kinda like what Anomalous Sources said at #1, which I nominate for Snark of the Day.

#8  Nope. Comrade De Blasio had an accident. Or, comrade De Blasio was assassinated by (fill according to need) terrorists.

#7  In the type of top-down authoritarian government he wishes for Trump would be announcing that "Comrade Mayor De Blasio has resigned for 'health reasons' and is currently living alone on a desert island..."

#3  De Blasio has not lifted a finger...but one went through his toilet paper.

#2  From what I heard, NYC is getting both hospital ships. And didn't Trump tell them to start by helping themselves?

De Blasio is just making sure he can blame Trump when he screws things up.
