“… it infuriates me to see centrist Democrats, including the party’s leaders in the House and Senate, keep their distance from him, or worse. The guy won (presumably—the official canvass is Tuesday). He did something absolutely stunning. He went from literally 1 percent to 43 percent. That never happens. When somebody pulls that off, people don’t need to be fretting about it or attacking it; they need to ask why and see what they can learn from it. It didn’t happen because he denounces Israel. And it didn’t happen because New York Democratic voters are suddenly a bunch of Jeremy Corbyns. It happened because he focused aggressively and entertainingly on the only real issue, the issue that has a lot of perfectly normal people at the end of their ropes: the insane cost of living in New York.”
It is sickening to watch the Democratic Establishment fight to destroy Mamdani with more passion, focus, dedication, and urgency than they have to spare for stopping Trump’s reign of terror.
Masked thugs who refused to identify themselves violently kidnapped an innocent mother in front of her three children yesterday. Nobody knows where she is. Maybe the Democratic leaders and the Democrats who represent Los Angeles and the county could redirect a little bit of their resources away from destroying a popular candidate because the billionaires told them to, and instead do whatever it takes, right fucking now, to stop these domestic terrorists.
