Our wealthy New Yorkers understand that everyone in this city needs to work together to protect the hardworking immigrants who wake up early every day to build our buildings, deliver our packages, prepare the food in our restaurants, keep our streets clean, and do all of the millions of tasks that make our city run. Those immigrants are our friends and our neighbors, and we cherish them.
And just has been true in the case of Central Park, most of those wealthy New Yorkers will wish to protect their home and their neighbors. They will not stand for the world’s greatest city to be turned into a war zone just to satisfy one man’s fragile ego and lust for power.
Recently in San Francisco, the dogs were called off because a wealthy friend of the president called him up on the phone and said that he didn’t want that kind of thing happening in the city where he lived. I suspect that if necessary, the White House (what’s still left of it) will get a similar phone call from New York.
