You do realize that the city issues ID cards and licenses to illegal immigrants resding in NYC , right?

When people go vote, what proof is usually sufficient?

disappointment is being affirmed per my assessment.
I'm still giving him at least a year but to be honest the guy doesn't seem to have any creativity whatsoever.

He has some obsession about hiring black women (not black men?) but other than that, I can't point to a profound/creative policy initiative.

I love a successful father, husband and friend and living in NJ is the best place to live imho. I love that you are happy and have tons of money and a wonderful life.
Just don’t lie.

You know nothing about me, so don’t judge.
You seem kind of miserable if you take the internet so seriously.

Are you willing to.claim that an illegal has never voted in an NYC election? Your statement (illegals don't vote) sounds absolute?

Since this thread is still going on, I'll again comment on the dates, and point out that you were complaining about him being a disappointment after LESS THAN THREE WEEKS in office.

I still think we would have been better off with Curtis Sliwa.

Like him or hate him.... he knows the city ,he lives in the city and we
would have already seen positive results of his addressing crime .

Adams is showing fast that he lives in some sort of "La La Land" where NYC is a premiere destination that people are fighting to live in. That NYC is gone.

NYC has the history and foundation to be great again, but it will need to be re-invented. Trying to use the old appeals in the 2020s will not resonate with people who can live in nicer places, for cheaper, and still accomplish goals and build a brand for themselves.

Adams needs to get with the times and is very out of touch.

What do you think Sliwa would have done differently? Besides give out red jackets and red berets.

What people fail to notice is that NyC gets by all on its own even without leadership, just look at last 8 years.
Sometimes it’s a bit better, then it dips.
No matter how much crap NYPD gets, they still do their work.

You bet that Sliwa wouldn't fill the city hall only with black females for whatever peculiar interest/motivation that Adams has in them...

IF not curtis, that yang guy would have done a 10x better job than the corrupt, sexist and racist adams.


under yang, at least everyone would have a chance to be picked to work in the city hall based on their intellectual competence, not because of their skin color and gender fall into a special taste...
