American talk show host Andy Cohen has had some choice words reserved for the now former NYC mayor Bill de Blasio, which he shared with the public on New Year’s Eve.
On CNN’s “New Year’s Eve Live”, Cohen insisted that “the only thing that Democrats and Republicans can agree on is what a horrible mayor” de Blasio has been.
“So, sayonara sucker!” he declared, delivering a mock salute.

Some took note of the spirit in which the observations were made, suggesting that alcohol might have been involved.
As the mayor of NYC, I think that Andy Cohen is Hammered right now, due to too much Champagne drinks. Cheers, and Have a Happy New Year's Everyone/Everybody !
