Bill de Blasio likens himself to Thomas Edison, Henry Ford, and Mahatma Gandhi

Bill de Blasio likens himself to Thomas Edison, Henry Ford, and Mahatma Gandhi:
Image result for Bill de Blasio fail meme"New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio seems to believe he is destined for great things. He even traveled to Iowa earlier this month, and although he's flatly denied that he is eyeing a run for president, the mayor has signaled in interviews that his sights are set on much more than just his city.
...De Blasio doesn't do much to help his case in that regard. 
Confronted with his bold failure of a "progressive agenda" that he initially announced in 2014, de Blasio called it "banal and simplistic" to suggest he might fail again if he takes the plan national:
“I want to talk to anyone who thinks that and tell them they need to start thinking more. I mean, give me a break. So every time someone tries something and it doesn't work, it invalidates anything else they might do going forward? Tell Thomas Edison that, and Henry Ford, tell Mahatma Gandhi. How many people fell on their faces along the way trying things, experimenting with things, had setbacks? There's no leader who hasn't had setbacks...."
