The Blaze

New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio added his name to the already crowded field of Democrats vying for their party's presidential nomination and a chance to challenge President Donald Trump in 2020 last week.

 

But if De Blasio is not careful, his presidential aspirations could leave him jobless altogether.

What are the details?

According to the New York Post, a "never-before-used clause in the city charter" could force De Blasio out of office if he neglects his mayoral duties while on the campaign trail.

The city's "committee on mayoral inability" — a five-member body of elected officials — could declare De Blasio "temporarily unable to discharge the powers and duties," effectively removing him from office, if he abandons the Big Apple on the path to the White House.
