Where was his security team?
If I’m running for mayor I’m having armed men around me at all times.
You pretend to be a cop refuse to identify yourself and try to kidnap me, my guards shoot you to death.
How stupid is that mayoral candidate?
Protect yourselves. These people are fucking Nazis.
I would imagine he was expecting this. Gives him clout in the race
Clout is useful when being on social media.
As far as protecting yourself from Nazis?
Makes you a target.
He’s running for mayor of NYC with a D after his name, he’s already a target
And while clout is definitely big on social media, clout with voters is important for politicians too
