Out where the Buses don’t run: Bill De Blasio predicts liberalism will sweep country

Bill de Blasio is the mayor elect of NYC in one of the lowest voter participation rates in city history.  Nonetheless the 6’5” neo-Communist is under the delusion he’s got a mandate to make New York a mecca of progressivism.  New Yorkers will find out soon enough the kind of lunacy his governorship really is.   

Politickerreports mayor-elect Bill de Blasio went down to Washington, D.C. today to meet with President Barack Obama, emerging emboldened that a “progressive movement” was sweeping the nation.

Speaking to reporters after the meeting, which includuded 15 other newly-elected mayors, Mr. de Blasio said it was clear to him that the fight against inequality–which formed the centerpiece of his campaign–was gaining steam far beyond the five boroughs.

“You can’t have a room full of mayors–literally every corner of the country–all spontaneously saying to the president of the United States the same exact things from their own experience: Something’s going on here … So what we have to do is organize it and amplify it,” he told Politicker.

“It was very interesting: a lot of them talked about pre-K, a lot of them talked about early childhood education as one of the breakthrough things we have to do to change the dynamics, a lot of them talked about their growing poverty levels and how it was undermining the future of their cities. So I think there was a really organic unity among all of us of the fact that this is the issue of our times. Fighting inequality is the mission of our times,” he said.

The meeting, organized by the White House, had been called “discuss the ways in which the Obama Administration can serve as an active partner on job creation and ensuring middle class families have a pathway to opportunity.”  Speaking in the Roosevelt Room, 

Mr. Obama said he hoped to partner with the city leaders to  help them achieve their goals.

“[M]y hope and goal out of this meeting is we immediate set up a strong partnership with all of the mayors that are here and all of the mayors that are not here where we get a clear sense of what their vision is of how they are trying to deliver services,” he said, according to a pool report.

Mr. de Blasio reportedly sat front and center in the room, directly across from the president as he discussed the recent budget deal, the importance of extending unemployment insurance and the potential benefits of raising the minimum wage.

The Obama regime has been talking about job creation for 5 years and it’s all a sham.  He doesn’t care about job, he cares about creating government dependency and converting it into votes to stay in power.
