OT, I can't wait to get back up to your city...Before Covid I went up 3 or 4 times a year...Sigh...Last time I was up Covid was JUST being considered a threat on the west coast...There's actually a possibility I contracted it when I was last up there!

I've been here through the entire pandemic and avoided it *knocks wood* but I honestly think traveling is just too fraught right now! You'll be back here soon.

That's a real shame if turnout was that low and he basically won on name recognition and "Oh he's the frontrunner because oh he just is so I guess we'll vote for him." I'm out here in Washington state so I've got no say in it, but if I had there's no damn way he would have been near the top of my picks. Above Yang, I guess, but c'mon.

This dude is a hot mess already. This is what you get when you fall for the progressives are bad for talking about defunding police. You get someone who is going to end up charged with corruption.

**Stares in Maya Wiley**

I didn't like him before, but I was DONE with him when he condescended down to her in the debate where (I'm paraphrasing) he basically said she was stupid and didn't understand how policing works.

It takes a particular type of personality to "shine" during city elections, and that personality type is "certifiable narcissist."

If Kathy wants me to vote for her, she'll do it.
