(37,182 posts)1. I like Yang a lot.
He presents his ideas very well. He doesn't take on a hostile tone.

Not a histrionic snowflake by any means. Lacking the overactive amygdala of repukes, much to his credit!

Not a fan of de Blasio (is anyone??), so it would be great if we could get a better Dem in that office.

I don't like Mayor either, but I don't live there.
