I like them - nice and snarky and not afraid to call a spade a spade. Mayor Bill DeBlasio called it quits for his 2020 presidential campaign and the NY Post ran a front-page obituary:
Tomorrow’s cover: Here lies Bill de Blasio's failed presidential campaign https://t.co/EGGmZyTSmW pic.twitter.com/Cf3i25N6Xd

DeBlasio has been spending a lot of time on the campaign trail and not enough time doing his job and New York City has been suffering for his absence.
Bill de Blasio’s presidential campaign, May 15, 2019-Sept. 20, 2019, dead of ego-induced psychosis. Neighbors said the body had been in rigor mortis for some time.
It died doing what it loved best — being as far away from New York City as possible.
IT was surrounded in the end by friends, MSNBC hosts. It’s in a better place now — a Park Slope gym.
Whether it was in the empty churches of South Carolina, the sun-kissed empty deserts of Nevada or begging someone, anyone, to talk to de Blasio at the Iowa State Fair, the campaign always gave 100% — and always polled at 1%. “Can’t” was never part of its vocabulary. Neither was “won’t,” “please stop,” or “this is a dumb idea.”
The campaign is survived by hotel industry officials who expect favors from City Hall. And 8 million suffering New Yorkers.
In lieu of flowers, de Blasio asks for donations to his slush fund.
Brutal... I love it.
