From the Washington Examiner:

New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio has ended his long-shot bid for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination. “I feel like I’ve contributed all I can to this primary election and it’s clearly not my time so I’m going to end my presidential campaign,” de Blasio told Morning Joe on Friday. De Blasio, who did not appear in the third debate earlier this month, said he could not see a path forward for his campaign because he could not meet the polling and donation thresholds to make the debate stage.

He didn’t contribute ANYTHING to the primary election so we’re not sure what the heck he’s talking about.

But what else is new?

That was the silliest presidential run in U.S. history. https://t.co/mM6zGgkeIB — Eddie Zipperer (@EddieZipperer) September 20, 2019

We dunno, Yang’s campaign is pretty damn silly.

Congratulations New York! He’s yours again. ? — Closeted News Junkie (@NewsCloset) September 20, 2019

All yours.

HA!

It was & NEVER will be his time. BIG BIRD has destroyed the city. He's more concerned about going to the gym than anything else. BYE BYE BIG BIRD, now RESIGN as mayor! — Steve Kishel (@sekishel) September 20, 2019

Is it just us or do people seem more than happy to see him go?

And Big Bird?

Heh.
