NYC Mayor Eric Adams has proven to be the troublesome, selfish Democratic city “leader” we’ve become accustomed to, despite pre-election appearances suggesting he would be a new brand of Democrat to bring some form of sanity back to the Big Apple.

This is further demonstrated by an event that occurred last week at a neighborhood gathering in Washington Heights.

Adams became furious after receiving harsh criticism on the recent approval of rent hikes by the Rent Guidelines Board, which Adams appointed. He yelled out at a senior white lady critic, labeling her a “plantation owner” for no apparent reason.

At a town hall gathering in Washington Heights on Wednesday, Adams warned Jeanie Dubnau, a Holocaust survivor, “Don’t stand front and center like you treated a person who is on the plantation that you own.”

When Dubnau rose during the discussion, she gestured at Adams and asked, “Why in New York City, where the property market is managed by you, are we experiencing these terrible rent hikes the year before and this year?”

This started the conversation involving the mayor and Dubnau. She was alluding to the most recent rate increases that the city’s Guidelines Board authorized for rent-stabilized apartments.

The mayor is who appoints members of the board.

“All right, first off, if you’re planning to ask me something, don’t point at me or treat me disrespectfully. Please treat me with the reverence that I deserve because I am the mayor of this city.”

Adams continued, adding the word “plantation,” saying, “I’m addressing you as a grown-up.”

Adams has been widely criticized for overreacting and turning this issue into a racial matter when it had nothing to do with race. Critics also aren’t pleased with the way he spoke to a Holocaust survivor.
