Copying it outside the president\u2019s headquarters here is just a sad \u201cme, too!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It pretends to be an in-your-face to The Man \u2014 but de Blasio is The Man, too, occupying one of the most powerful elected offices in America. The only conceivable point here is to passive-aggressively accuse President Trump of racism.<\/p>\n<p>The mayor is simultaneously (he says) still hoping for a bailout to the tune of several billion from the federal government led by the guy he\u2019s so publicly insulting. But that\u2019s almost the least of it.<\/p>\n<p>Black lives are being ended daily now in this city, thanks to the crime wave. De Blasio plainly has no clue how to stop it, or at least no will to take the lead in reversing the tide.<\/p>\n<p>And for his featured co-star in his painting stunt, he opts to invite the Rev. Al Sharpton \u2014 a lifelong purveyor of racial division who himself stands silent about the murder mayhem in the city\u2019s black neighborhoods.<\/p>\n<p>Most pathetic of all, none of this will win the mayor points with the people he\u2019s desperate to please: They\u2019re still mad at him for not defunding the NYPD, and even (mildly) defending it in the face of the recent riots.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s no wonder de Blasio is now heckled from the left and right: New Yorkers across the spectrum see that his every move is nothing more than a self-serving stunt.\n            <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>If you want to read more Opinion <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/news\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">News<\/a> articles, you can visit our <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/en.buradabiliyorum.com\/general\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">General category.<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>if you want to <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/watch-movies-tv-seriess\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"8\" title=\"Watch Movies &amp; TV Series\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">watch Movies<\/a> or Tv Shows go to <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/dizi.buradabiliyorum.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Dizi.BuradaBiliyorum.Com<\/a> <\/span> for forums sites go to <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/forum.buradabiliyorum.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Forum.BuradaBiliyorum.Com<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"color: black;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2020\/07\/09\/with-nyc-in-crisis-de-blasio-wastes-time-on-stupid-stunt-baiting-trump\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Source<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;#With NYC in crisis, de Blasio wastes time on stupid stunt baiting Trump&#8221; July 9, 2020 | 7:28pm Enlarge Image Mayor de Blasio, first lady Chirlane McCray, the Reverand Al Sharpton and others helped to paint &#8220;Black Lives Matter&#8221; on 5th Avenue in front of Trump Tower today.
