One of the promises that Donald Trump made on the campaign trail was to end congestion pricing in New York City and he has begun to follow through by pulling federal approval for the tolls. New York Governor Kathy Hochul has fought back against the President but with Trump holding the keys to federal funding for the state of New York, he holds the power. Vickie Paladino, New York City Council member, spoke with Mendte in the Morning about Hochul and her efforts to fight back against Trump.
“She can stomp her feet and shake her head and point her finger all she wants; congestion pricing is gonna be gone,” Paladino told host Larry Mendte. “These little temper tantrums that we’re watching all these Democrats throw because they simply do not know what to do, I find it kinda funny.”
Paladino thinks that Hochul can’t handle all of the issues she is trying to resolve: “She’s got a pot so big of soup that’s boiling over its pathetic.”
