Oh fuck no. New Yorkers don’t give a fuck... and I mean a fuck about anyone else.

Now they want a massive bail out. Because they failed to prepare for anything. And their entire leftist ideology just got crushed.

The entire state of Montana could’ve died and New Yorkers would’ve been eating cake.

Not only, they would be parading in the streets that flyover country is suffering, giving out free champagne, dildos, abortions and gourmet ice cream for everyone

NYC is the one US city I have been to where this seems to be the case. It's like its own little nationalist country within the US, that also hates the US. In LA they at least care about what is happening in the other coastal cities and wine country. NYC acts like it's an independent nation completely non-reliant on anywhere else

Not only that, many of those who willingly live in NYC spend so much money on their insane rents and prices that they can't even afford to travel outside the concrete jungle

Once you get outside of Manhattan and gentrified parts of Brooklyn, a solid majority of white voters in New York City vote trump. They are just totally drowned out by the minority and immigrant vote in Brooklyn and Queens. Staten Island went red and will again in November.

Don't forget illegal aliens, and other tricks that our voting system allows.

Pedes don't run elections so new York is lost until they do as there will never be a fair election while democrats control the ballot box.

Clearly you're unfamiliar with the area.

Everyone in NYC and LI who votes D are the millstones around NY's neck. Ask any upstater.

Ive lived here my whole life. Im familiar with things. You are correct that the City is a millstone. Westchester is worse than Long Island. My point is that there a ton of red voters downstate but just not enough to overcome the minority and immigrant vote. The stereotypical crazed lunatic wealthy liberal in manhattan and brooklyn is a real thing, but they are still outnumbered by those that are not. We are just kind of silent and hidden. I know way more trump supporters than not. And i live 15 miles from midtown. But the republican areas tend to isolate and cluster by income and job type. So its a biased sample. Take the New York times voter map from 2016 down to the precinct level and overlay against the racial makeup of new york neighborhoods and the correlation is actually shocking. White middle class and upper middle class voted for trump. Minorities and secular jews voted for Hillary.

Also, where did the money for bio-terrorisim prevention went? NYC received billions after 9-11 for such event. Why isn’t the press asking this question?

NYC is full of pansies. They talk the walk but never walk the walk. Any little pressure or small disaster that hits em they turtle and ask for the Federal Government to bail them out.
