Holy smokes is this bad, even for Bill de Blasio.

The mayor of New York City and presidential hopeful polling at 0% thinks anti-Semitism is only a ‘right-wing movement'”:

De Blasio says anti-Semitism is strictly a 'right-wing movement' https://t.co/RlntwQD343 pic.twitter.com/k1TxTilAYb — New York Post (@nypost) June 5, 2019

He’s commenting on a new report on hate crimes in NYC that showed a huge increase in anti-Semitic attacks in his city:

NYT: “Of the hate crimes reported this year, 60 percent were anti-Semitic, 10 percent were anti-black and 10 percent were anti-gay, according to the figures.” https://t.co/IeRIUgSPqZ — Jake Tapper (@jaketapper) June 5, 2019

Because Brooklyn and Queens are known hotbeds of white supremacy?

Crown Heights and Williamsburg, Brooklyn are just a hotbed of rightwingers. https://t.co/qSH08PJ9i3 That last line by @JoeBorelliNYC is the best. — Karol Markowicz (@karol) June 5, 2019

And de Blasio knows he’s full of crap, which makes this worse:

This is so dangerous, @BilldeBlasio, your blindness to what's actually happening to Jews in Brooklyn and Queens is unacceptable and you're simply not fit to run NYC #AntiSemitism #Judeophobia https://t.co/ARPDH7iFd4 — Cameron Gray (@Cameron_Gray) June 5, 2019

Staten Island Republican Joe Borelli told the NY Post, “Bill de Blasio regularly says stupid things, but this is literally the stupidest effing thing he’s ever said”:

And that’s the quote of the day.
