NYC needs Rudy to come back for a third term as Mayor. He can do that in NYC, Mayors can have 3 terms. Ed Koch had 3, Bloomberg had 3, Rudy did 2 and moved on to national politics. Another fantasy I have is that President Trump becomes Mayor of NYC after his time in the WH is over. “Make NYC Great Again”

Incorrect - they discontinued unlimited terms when Giuliani was electing, setting it to 2. Mini Mike then bribed all the right pols to set the term limit to 3, was reelected, then reverted the term limit back to 2. Mercifully DeBlasio is gone next year no matter what.

Oh wow! You know I remembered something about the city wanting Giuliani for a third term but he only stayed for 2 and I remembered that 2 was the limit but Koch and Bloomberg both had 3 so I thought I must have remembered it incorrectly.

It's weird cause of course no one covers the "how" Mini pulled off term 3.

How about salt NYC and never come back? We don't need any more metropolises dominating national politics. The move to distributing power over the country is a good one, if only so many of the ones getting distrubuted weren't fucking leftists.
