‘The Case for Clinton’: Has The Post Gone Mad?

-

Has The Post editorial board gone mad (“The Case for Clinton,” Editorial, Jan. 6)?

The last thing New Yorkers need is Hillary Clinton for mayor. Hillary has never lived in New York City. She has no firsthand knowledge of the challenges that New Yorkers face on a daily basis, and she has no experience solving problems like homelessne­ss, public safety, traffic and transporta­tion.

What is Hillary going to do — sell rooms at Gracie Mansion for donations to the Clinton Foundation?

For all of Mayor de Blasio’s faults, at least he lived in the city for many years before becoming mayor. Don’t New Yorkers deserve better than a corrupt carpetbagg­er who has only used public office for her own personal gain? Joanna Hass Manhattan

I really love The Post, but I think the editorial staff must still be hung over from New Year’s Eve.

The Clintons in charge of New York City, along with its $86 billion budget? Really? Somewhere, Boss Tweed is laughing. Paul Eberst Freeport

Let me try and understand The Post’s case for advocating a Hillary run for mayor.

The Post thinks it’s a good idea to go from a mayor who’s being investigat­ed for all types of corrupt activities, including pay-for-play fundraisin­g, to an unlikeable, untrustwor­thy, failed presidenti­al candidate who was under FBI investigat­ion? Ken Rosen Brooklyn

Of course Hillary is considerin­g a run for mayor. Who would bother contributi­ng to the Clinton Foundation if she doesn’t have a government position to sell?

After all, as Bill Clinton said: Somebody has to pay the bills. Michael Quane South Hempstead

The Post must be kidding. Maybe Hillary could be mayor of Chappaqua, but not Gotham.

The Clintons have been defanged. We need for both of them to retreat into the trash bin of history. Alexander Beard Manhattan

Yes, de Blasio must go, but to replace him with a crippled candidate who will strip the city of dignity isn’t the answer. Eliezer Cohen Cedarhurst
