Wonder why he changed his tune when he so bitterly opposed the budget only two days ago?

Something's up.....

Ever since he decided to ignore the wishes of NYers and bypass term limits he has made one misstep after another.

He is hostile to the non-rich and he has ignored the outer boros. He's a terrible mayor.
