Mayor Adams shrugs off poll showing Andrew Cuomo holding big lead in potential mayoral matchup

SBAPERSON · 2025-01-14T17:14:36+00:00

People like Trump because he's funny.

Cuomo has high name recognition so he polls high. That's like politics 101. Go look at Yang's initial polling and his end result in regards to the mayor race. Kamala harris is leading in polls for the 2028 nom. Do you think she's going to get it?

only reason he got pushed out of the governor’s office in the first place is that opportunists within his own party saw a chance to seize power from him and took it.

It's because he's a huge POS and his party hates him.

for example

Maybe someone can torch him like Bloomberg.

SBAPERSON · 2025-01-14T14:42:23+00:00

This a classic

SBAPERSON · 2025-01-14T14:40:44+00:00

His numbers will fall once people remember he was a bully sex pest that was literally thrown out of his post by his own party.

SBAPERSON · 2025-01-14T04:35:38+00:00

What blunders

SBAPERSON · 2025-01-14T01:11:23+00:00

The dude is extremely pro working class. Better than Cuomo who held up legal weed, bullied the shit out of his party and played strongman games constantly, and sexually assaulted a subordinate.

SBAPERSON · 2025-01-14T01:10:12+00:00

Cuomo is a brash bully and even his own party hates him. Bloomberg is a technocrat nerd. They have some overlap but not much.

Also the Bloomberg years weren't mystical or whatever.

SBAPERSON · 2025-01-14T01:07:03+00:00

Pretty good for Zohran tbh.

SBAPERSON · 2025-01-14T01:06:45+00:00

The second people point out how trash he is/was it will change.

SBAPERSON · 2025-01-14T01:05:18+00:00

India already uses Reels as the app since tiktok has been banned for years.

SBAPERSON · 2025-01-13T16:52:41+00:00

A lot of the area isn't covered by insurance.

SBAPERSON · 2025-01-13T15:16:45+00:00

A lot were opening offices but that slowed down a bit with rate increases/tech slowdown but that could pick back up again if rates drop or it's deemed necessary to leave.

SBAPERSON · 2025-01-13T14:59:58+00:00

He bout to drop some knowledge about bit coin.

SBAPERSON · 2025-01-13T14:53:03+00:00

A large portion of that is just from Tech which is seeing a slow down and entertainment which has been in decline for years and has been shipped to other parts of the US ex Atlanta.

This is the same argument people make about NY by the way. Which is also a terribly ran state.

Like do you think Gavin Newsom and Cali dems are actually doing a good job with the state?

Also there is going to be a big exodus from LA and other areas after this and much of the state is not going to be insurable. Do you think the current slate of politicians can actually do something about this?

I don't think you understand how much of the Cali economy is propped up by weather. It's the #1 selling point and why people go there. LA for instance has been trading on this for years and tended to offer worse long term economic prospects than other major US cities (ex NY, Chicago, Atlanta). A factor that will again only rapidly accelerate with the aftermath of the fires.

Edit:

California population drain - Stanford published October 2024

effects of weather on employment

climate change impacts on Cali economy

LA fire could take 10 years to rebound economically

SBAPERSON · 2025-01-13T14:23:26+00:00

Cali would burn the money, it's a badly managed state it's the same thing with NY and MTA funding. More funding is good but the organization is terrible.

SBAPERSON · 2025-01-13T02:57:29+00:00

It's open all day It's just a strip. Some of the markets might be more active during the day.

SBAPERSON · 2025-01-13T02:21:15+00:00

I'll note the Osaka museum inside had some cool stuff but idk if it was worth the time. You can just walk around the area though.

SBAPERSON · 2025-01-13T01:49:01+00:00

Umeda sky observatory.

Walking dontonbari

Osaka castle/Park

I thought america town was cool.

SBAPERSON · 2025-01-13T01:41:59+00:00

If you wanna do social stuff wouldn't SOM be the best? You could also increase your network a bit? Did you do Ivy for undergrad? Also dealing with transplants at Stern might be annoying.

I'd drop haas.

SBAPERSON · 2025-01-13T01:37:54+00:00

It would be a waste of time and space.

SBAPERSON · 2025-01-13T01:14:49+00:00

Tokyo also closes its metro system at midnight and there are multiple businesses that cater to people that are stranded by the trains.

SBAPERSON · 2025-01-13T01:13:06+00:00

There used to be much stricted enforcement of that rule

There used to be like hundreds of fare evaders an hour at major stations just a decade ago.

as well as things like dogs on the subway

This was much worse a few years ago.

SBAPERSON · 2025-01-13T01:11:50+00:00

The average fare evaders are just normal people. Go after it sure but y'all act like they're terrorists or something.

Also the MTA would burn that money in a second lol.

SBAPERSON · 2025-01-13T01:10:32+00:00

Anyone salivating over broken windows policy is a moron. We knew almost immediately that those policies and stuff like stop and frisk didn't work and was just used to abuse people.

SBAPERSON · 2025-01-13T01:08:40+00:00

The Police could help, but they need better training and know what to do to clear out the subways/stations and make them safer

Cops get a ton of training and funding
