De Blasio believes the rules don’t apply to him

There is much to dislike about New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio, but his worst quality is easily his “for me, but not for thee” approach to governance.

The mayor revealed this week that city officials skipped their own permitting process when they painted Black Lives Matter street art around the city, explaining that the anti-police demonstrations are too important to have to abide by the rules that everyone else must follow.
