Dan Donovan – The Congressman Who Forgets He Represents Bay Ridge
President Donald Trump issued a Muslim Ban and Congressman Dan Donovan doesn’t think he needs to be present for his community in Bay Ridge. People have so many questions and concerns. Donovan wants to hold the title of Congressman, but would rather sit at his desk in Staten Island than travel over the bridge and hold a town hall meeting.
Has Donovan ever held a town hall in Bay Ridge?
Press release politics is the name of the game for Donovan. I can bet if I showed ten Bay Ridge residents Dan Donavan’s picture, 9 out of 10 would not be able to identify him either by name or as their Congressman.
One day, Dan Donovan’s daughter will have to sit and watch the video of Eric Garner and this video of her father being out of touch with the people he is suppose to represent.
Since Donovan wouldn’t hear the people (some yelled out to Donovan, “Answer your phone””) they went to him. (See the story and the video) Donovan is outshined by almost everyone who spoke after him.
Story here too.
