Well, it's one of the reasons I left New York, by the way. But it it's totally shocking to me. I mean, this is a guy who promised to defund the NYPD. So, he hates cops. He hates the Jews, right? I mean, he came out and said Netanyahu is a, you know, he's a criminal and he's going to arrest him if he ever comes into New York. He hates the Indian population. He literally says that Modi is a war criminal. He wants to nationalize grocery stores. He wants to raise everybody's taxes by what 12%.
Guess what? You're just going to see a lot more people come down to New York. I mean, other than that, and by the way, he wants to empty all jails. He doesn't believe in the concept of having jails for a city. Other than that, he's a a wonderful human being. I I don't I don't know how people can vote for this guy. I really don't.

And all you need to do in New York is very simple. Clean streets, safe streets,
reasonable taxes. I'm not saying like you need to go down to zero, but like do like North Carolina style taxes where you charge, you know, 4% or something along those lines. Knock out the city tax, knock out the state tax. And honestly, New York would be pretty unstoppable if you had that recipe. But yet, these guys create this petri dish and it always has to be another social experiment. And that social experiment is not working. And it's uh it's devastating because I truly love everything that New York stands for. and and they just routinely screw it up.
