Bummed that Eric Adams dropped out. I was so looking forward to the schadenfreude of seeing an incumbent mayor finishing with a vote percentage in the single digits

Trump is aggressively ignorant. He does not learn, actively resists it, and has surrounded himself with people who enable his stupidity.
