#1 He's gotten everything he's ever asked for and has every expectation of that state of affairs continuing.

All the fulminating in the world about his chutzpah won't change that fact.

Saying "Have you no decency?" to sociopaths who possess cunning in place of any capacity to reason or empathize is a fool's errand.

#6 NYC may be mostly dead, but it will come back. Eventually. We're just betting on the time-line.

My advice: Don't hold your breath. Detroit is going on 70 years from its peak in the 1950's.

#7 Detroit is going on 70 years from its peak in the 1950's.

Detroit with a Republican mayor would be back within five years. The problem is they refuse to elect anyone not a party machine Democrat. We’ll see whether New York City learns that lesson — they at least remember thriving under Mayor Giuliani.
