President Trump posted Thursday a video of him aboard Air Force One with his opinion of the entrance of New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio into the 2020 presidential race.
“@BilldeBlasio is the worst Mayor in the history of New York City – he won’t last long!” Trump said in a tweet linking a video of him sitting at a desk on Air Force One.
“I can’t believe it,” Trump said in the video. “The worst mayor in the United States is now running for president. It will never happen. I’m pretty good at predicting these like that.”
“If you like high taxes and if you like crime, you can vote for him, but most people aren’t into that,” Trump said.
“Good luck, do well!” the president ended his video.

De Blasio announced Thursday he joining a field of over 20 declared Democratic presidential candidates.
“There’s plenty of money in this world. There’s plenty of money in this country. It’s just in the wrong hands,” de Blasio said in his presidential video announcement.
“I’m a New Yorker. I’ve known Trump’s a bully for a long time. This is not news to me or anyone here, and I know how to take him on,” de Blasio said.
On Monday, de Blasio was heckled for a pre-presidential announcement stunt where he held a press conference in Trump Tower on New York City’s version of the Green New Deal.
