Andrew Yang for NYC Mayor

[TimT]

The singular reason I will vote for him is that he approaches every issue with an open mind

IOW he won’t take a stand. Or he’ll take both sides, one today & one tomorrow.
“I’m against BDS”. “BDS is a wonderful thing.”

The only thing I know about the guy is that he likes to eat. Or is that also a shpiel ?

[Ver hut gazugt]

I trust Eric Adams much more. He is not inherently a liberal....

I don't call this a walkback. I actually agreed with almost  every word there.

There is one line that ruins it.

"They were, of course, correct"

You felt he had acknowledge the pain of both sides?

He’s empty. No backbone. If this is how he felt he should’ve said it originally. He needed to be reminded that he’s “a human being who cares about people dying” ? He just wants everybody’s endorsement, & he’ll say anything in order to get it.

I think that he was wrong to concede that his tweet "was overly simplistic in it's treatment of the conflict"

Do people really believe it when they say “if you want NYC to get cleaned up” vote for Yang ? LOL
What has he ever done to make anyone think he could & would make NY the world class city it once was ?

It's more about knowing that the other definitely will not be cleaning up NYC.

They're both equal in this regard.

Your question reminds me of the slogan "hope and change"...

Who would be better? I put Adams as #1, Yang #2, Garcia #3. I have about as much faith in any of them as I do in chalav Yisroel milk lasting more than 2 days, but they'd be better than Wiley

And you didn't write in Chanina Sperlin as #4?

I actually did do a write-in for #4, just not Chanina. I did my BIL. #ifyouknowyouknow

Still no POTF in NYC?!?

You hold your nose & vote. I don’t get the excitement for a flip-flopping empty suit.

There are many fundamental stances that have not exactly been popular with many , that yang has stood firm by.

Write ins and candidates with no chance are supposed to be in #1.
