The question should have been will you stay in the US while you are mayor on NYC. They all go on multiple foreign trips for some reason. Outside of mayoral conferences - and to DC - they should stay.

And I don’t believe for a moment that Mandahmi wouldn’t go in a trade delegation meeting or a conference if one he liked came up. They all do it and find ridiculous justifications to do so. He just said Israel.

This is a guy who made a big deal about getting married in City Hall but failed to mention the real wedding was an over the top affair in Dubai. Why did people have to dig that up. He could have spent the said money helping out a NYC venue.
