    Nope! The “playing politics” narrative completely falls apart if you even glance at his mayoral campaign. Dude basically had the election in the bag while calling for the arrest of Netanyahu. He earned the vast majority of his support through this rhetoric and only changed course after that was secured.

    Keeping that mega-zio as police commissioner is absurd and completely at odds with the messaging he ran on and won with. Remember, choosing your own police commissioner is something every mayor does, and he chose to keep this one with only 1 year of experience under her belt.

    The way his campaign has been run the past few months you would think New York was entirely populated with Jewish people and nobody else. It’s frankly weird the way he has centered their feelings around his entire administration.

    You’re confusing nuance with centrism, which is a common mistake. My comment however is supported with real arguments and examples, while your comment has none.
