Perfect example of being for "We The People" and representing their constituency.
From the London Daily Mail:
Miami mayor FLED Hurricane Ian to attend a pair of big money fundraisers in his honor 1,200 miles away at ritzy celebrity-favorite clubs while tweeting at Floridians to 'stay informed & stay safe'
-
- As the state of Florida was bracing for Hurricane Ian Miami Mayor Francis Suarez was in NYC
- The two big money fundraisers were held for Suarez's Agenda for America PAC
- Suarez's first stop was at Casa Cipriani, a posh private members club located on Manhattan's South St, according to a source who attended the event, The New York Post reported
- The Mayor's next stop was the ritzy Upper East Side French restaurant Le Bilboquet, the source said
- As the storm pummeled the Sunshine State, Suarez sent out tweets to Floridians to 'stay informed and stay safe,' while he was in the Big Apple
I "get it" — this event was planned weeks ago and there were "people" there.
Sheesh. Talk about being out of touch. He could have flown back immediately and been on TV walking around some of the areas - that would be a lot better optics than dining in some swanky joint 1,200+ miles to the North, out of harms way.
