Things that annoy me (8 Viewers)

He got 50.39% of the vote, when i did maths at school that was over half, these figures are from official, multiple, sources. Plus combining the other 2 candidates figures is meaningless, unless you really think the 146,137 people that voted for Curtis Sliwa would have voted for Andrew Cuomo?

As for 'moron', he arrived in the US in 1998 aged seven and became a citizen in 2018, then in 2025 he becomes mayor of th US largest city. Not bad for a 'moron', he speaks 7 languages and the President, from the meeting they had, thinks he is a great guy.......is he wrong?

All politicians make promises, the current President said the Ukraine war would end on day one and he would bring down prices. Not only in the US but politicans are alike all over the world, make lots of promises and hopefully they think they will deliver enough to survive. Such is life.

'Clueless as to how things actually work' - that seems to be a theme in US politics, one only has to point to the currrent president.

On federal funding, New York provides too much federal funding to the US government not to be listened too. Paying more than the 19 lowest paying states put together. It is where the 'money people' live and/or earn their wealth and we know money talks.

I do not think which invisible friend living in the sky he believes in makes him either good or bad. Something i always admired about the USA was I thought the US was built on what you did and how hard you work, people were given a chance and were judged on their achievement. So give him a chance. i admired this as the US seemed to be above the age old class system which the UK suffers from, where it mattered where you went to school, how you speak and what you parents did.

Thanks as always for chiming in on US events from your side of the pond.

You really told me what's what now didn't you, I feel so clueless compared to your know it all fvcking attitude.

Do you get dizzy up there on your high horse, asking for a friend.

Yeah; let's just see how this plays out.................like when you watch a car crash.

I believe in free speech, but not stupidity. As far I am concerned, the guy who won NY is a moron. He is anti semetic, funded by anti semites and is Anti American. IF the idiots and I say that in all favor, want to elect the guy, then they get what they get. I don't have to worry about it b/c I don't live there. What I worry about is the spread of this crap to the rest of America. Look at your London, I don't really think you are better off with the trend in your recent elections.

And as for New York, people are once again leaving and where do you think they are going - the "evil RED South". Amazing how that works, they pontificate about the backwards Southerners and Texans and where do they go first when the idiocy finally drives them out.........................................

Thanks to that election, home prices are on the rise again in Florida.

Spot on.

And my thoughts exactly; I don't live in NYC, so I could care less how it plays out, but what I don't want is this sort of rot spreading to the rest of the country.

And with my better half being Jewish, his anti Semetic attitude rubs me the wrong way, I could care less about his rise to become mayor of NYC and how he speaks 7 languages, he's anti Semetic, so fvck him.

Period.

End of story.

The worst part about all of this are the Jewish folks who vote for people like this. I have never been able to figure it out, that half of my family has a few that vote that way and when you ask them why, no explanation, they don't want to talk about it. My comment to them is how can you be an such an intelligent person and vote for an anti semite. I just dont get it.

33% of the NYC Jewish population voted for this moron; just beyond stunning, it defies logic.
