Mayor Bill de Blasio was forced to make an embarrassing apology to the loved ones of those killed in last year’s West Side Highway terror attack — when he forgot to honor the victims at their own memorial.
Survivors and family members of those killed were in attendance, but the mayor didn’t mention the victims’ names or say anything about who they were — initially opting only to praise the first responders.
After the 15-minute ceremony, de Blasio began shaking hands with the families — then suddenly hurried back to the podium, revealing that someone had called him out on the omission.
“I apologize. This should have been part of the gathering to read the names of the eight that we lost,” he told the crowd.
“So I want to right that wrong with apologies and do that now and ask everyone to bow their heads as we remember each of them.”

Again, what a dumbass. Someone had to REMIND him why he was there in the first place.
