Democrats keep lecturing us about a crisis of democracy, but as usual they’re the ones with the crisis.
New York currently has a really bad case of this. To understand why that is, we need a little political game theory.
New York City Mayor Eric Adams had his case closed by the Trump administration. Despite that, Dems have been encouraging Gov. Hochul to remove him from office on the grounds of corruption/collaborating with Trump. To Dems the latter is an obviously much more grave sin than the former.
But Hochul has a major vested interest in how this all plays out because her former boss, Andrew Cuomo, is prepping a mayoral run. And if he becomes mayor, his next stop will likely involve a battle with Hochul. Andy is a pit bull who never forgets or forgives, but after being ousted he and his brother remade themselves as populists, fighters against antisemitism and a bit friendly toward Trump.
Gov. Hochul has to consider whether removing Adams or keeping him is the best way to block Cuomo.
Democratically speaking, the voters elected Adams and he should stay in office until they choose otherwise. And Hochul’s vested interest in the matter should preclude her ability to protect herself by subverting democracy. None of the media’s democracy experts however seem to agree. Democracy to them is entirely transactional and is limited to them winning elections and crediting democracy, and blaming an attack on democracy if they lose.
If Hochul does remove Adams, she will trigger an actual democracy crisis with the aid of the Democrats.
Thanks for the excellent info on NY politics, which is a mystery to me 🙂
And to us here!
There’s a lot of vote fraud and other shenanigans
Yeah, we have the same problems here in California.
And no, I don’t think you’re a stupid voter. 🙂
Not so mysterious. New York has a similar mix of Dirtbagocrat vote cheating and lots of stupid voters that we have in California. I think the only difference is that New York’s stupid voters tend to be more inbred than ours. 😛
New York Democ-rats are in a pickle and the reason is simple. The black NY City mayor is an uppity Negro (palling around with DJT) and lily white Massa “Kathy” (Gov. Kathy Hochul) is highly offended. How dare he, sniffs she. Stay tuned to the NY Democ-rats’ real life version of the Oscar-winning movie, “Driving Miss Daisey.”
Hmmm……
An actor on set is a pretend person.
A politician on set is an actor.
S/he doesn’t write the script; just acts in it.
Others write the script. Others direct and produce the script.
Money underwrites the script and money is directing and producing the script.
There are no intrinsic morals in acting. It’s a ‘craft’.
Just ‘appear’ moral in a role. And get an Oscar or a Nobel Peace Prize.
The core of the role of politician is being able to convince the paying audience, you know, us, the taxed electorate, that the actor really is a savior in real life with healing powers and untouchable integrity.
I think that it was Samuel Goldwyn who said, “ to make it in Hollywood, you need sincerity. If you can fake that, then you’ve got it made.”
Too bad for Ho-Cthulhu, New York law or a rule or whatever specifies that she can only remove da Mayor, Boogie Adams, from office if he’s incapable of performing his duties.
Good luck with that, you psycho eyed Ho-Bag. Maybe you should focus on the lawsuit AG Bondi is going to crush you with., and the millions of criminal illegal aliens you helped fill America’s largest city with. You know, the aliens that not even the mentally retarded “woke” voters in New York want.
“Despite that, Dems have been encouraging Gov. Hochul to remove him from office on the grounds of corruption/collaborating with Trump. To Dems the latter is an obviously much more grave sin than the former.”
For NY democrats, only the latter is a sin. The former is business as usual.
NYPD Wants 100,000 Hijabis – Recruiting for Sharia Compliance. NYPD is openly recruiting for Sharia compliance! This isn’t about “inclusion.” It’s about normalizing submission—one hijab at a time. I think that will affect Democrats.
The only time the Demo-Rats were really into the U.S. Constitution was in their failed attempt to Impeach Trump when in fact it was Clinton(Bill)and Obama as well as Biden who really should have been Impeached
