NYC Mayor Eric Adams is eyeing up a 2024 White House bid as an anti-woke Democrat if Joe Biden decides not to run for a second term, it is claimed. Adams, 61,-who once referred to himself as the 'Biden of Brooklyn'-has 'repeatedly' told confidantes that he is considering running for the highest office and thinks he could 'win,' sources told the New York Post. 'Eric has told me repeatedly that he thinks that he has a platform to run for national office, for president in 2024,' a source close to the mayor told the Post.(Snip)However, Adam's advisor Evan Thies dismissed rumors,

Comments:

Mayor Dude is failing magnificently thus far in NYC, but he bLACK and calls white people "crackers," which makes him far more qualified than Dung Bidet to lead this failed nation.

If I laugh any harder, someone will have to help me up off the floor! This upwardly mobile incompetent, with his entourage of family and friends ready to feed at the public trough, is delusional to the point where one questions his sanity. Granted the Dems' barrel is clearly empty of potential candidates, but I don’t eve think they’d even find this guy stuck to the bottom.

Awesome! Bring it! Let the Dems run a bunch of dysfunctional Dem leaders for POTUS. The party of "Joe is the best we have". Dems biggest threat is not in the form of a politician or policy - it's their cheating. Weak GOP best grow a pair. The US will not survive another 2020. Once Republicans get the House & Senate back, they will need to get on this quickly & aggressively. The clock to 2024 will be ticking, and Dems will dig in & fight tooth & nail every inch of the way. Eliminate COVID drop boxes & nationalize Voter ID - a good start!

President Adams would then have toddlers in daycare and 5 yo’s wearing masks indoors NATIONWIDE to please the Teacher Unions and Randy Weingartner, like he did in NYC. Adams is too stupid to realize that his constituents don’t love him; they just hated the lazy, corrupt, incompetent deBlasio so much more and would vote for anyone to get rid of him.

Right! Just what we need another idiot Dem who isn't even capable of handling Manhattan or the state of NY. Just like the other clown Blasio one of the dumbest clowns. Let's face it, anyone watching this potted plant in the WH running around in his tight little pimp suit that emphasizes his age and frailness tells himself, I can do a little better than that incompetent. They are right. However, the US is not ready for another idiot. Just like these 2 clowns Bidet in his best days was stupid, arrogant, a liar, a plagiarist and the butt of many jokes!

Did Adams and Butt Judge not read "The Peter Principle?" When you fail miserably and completely at your current level of status, you must stay there, not strive to reach the next level. Given the current state of affairs in democrat administrations I can understand why they think they can outperform Biden. Daffy Duck has a shot right now.

And I say: "Why not?" He's the perfect Demo-rat. An affirmative action loser who "won" the mayoralty because there was zero opposition. He supports CRT, BLM, 1619, no bail, low prison terms and easy parole, higher taxes, etc. Almost all of his hires and personal staff are black friends and relatives. He'd fit right in the White House. But don't worry ... if he gets too disillusion & uppity they'll drop a dime on his corrupt butt.

This clown of a mayor hasn't been at City Hall long enough to even know where the men's room, oops, I mean, the all gender, binary/non-binary, theirs, they, them, its, bathroom is; children are murdered routinely in drive by shootings, toddlers remain masked, only 8 percent of employees are back at their desks full time, City employees are still home padding around in their fuzzy slippers and NYC is careening to destruction, and this moron says he's going to run for president? He is so moronically stupid and clueless he thinks using a moniker like I'm the "Biden of Brooklyn," is positive. Having been born and raised in Brooklyn and being a life long New Yorker (hoping to escape one day) I am sick to my stomach at this man's idiocy knowing how much power he wields. The two biggest jobs on the planet, President of the United States and Mayor of the City of New York are run by complete and utter horses' behinds. Pathetic.

A top executive at Microsoft watched “VR porn” in front of his subordinates in the office, according to a new report. The executive, virtual reality chief Alex Kipman, allegedly watched a sexy pillow fight involving young women in skimpy clothing in front of a half-dozen staffers, Insider reported. A screen in the room reportedly displayed the frisky video while Kipman was watching it on a virtual reality headset. The staffers were baffled and two of them walked out of the room, according to the outlet. One employee who was at the meeting told Insider that Kipman watching what they described as “VR porn” made people “incredibly uncomfortable.”

Uvalde, Texas—Onlookers urged police officers to charge into the Texas elementary school where a gunman's rampage killed 19 children and two teachers, a witness said Wednesday, as investigators worked to track the massacre that lasted upwards of 40 minutes and ended when the 18-year-old shooter was killed by a Border Patrol team.

An FBI agent testified in court Tuesday that a “typo” in an email led investigators in 2016 to believe that false allegations linking former President Trump to Russia’s Alfa Bank originated with the Department of Justice, when in fact they came from Hillary Clinton campaign lawyer Michael Sussmann. FBI Agent Curtis Heide, who along with agent Allison Sands authored the internal communication, said the inaccuracy, sent out just weeks before the 2016 election, was simply a mistake. “We may have conflated the Office of the General Counsel and the Justice Department,” Mr. Heide said on the witness stand. “I don’t know how that information got in there.”

Donald J. Trump was the best POTUS in my very long lifetime. His policies were effective, making America prosperous, energy independent, and lowering minority unemployment to record low levels. Everything he did, with the possible exception of the COVID lockdown, was quintessentially Trump; competent, encouraging, and salutary for America and her people. We were blessed to have him in the White House. Although many Americans cringed, we nonetheless put up with Trump’s coarseness and his inflated ego because he gave America back to the people.
