Mamdani, a proudly socialist 33-year-old, holds a 44-36 percent lead over over former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo – who was hoping that New Yorkers had short memories, and were ready to re-elect the textbook centrist Democrat.
However, after the disaster of Trump’s first year back in the White House – with everyday American life interrupted by protests, immigration raids, corruption allegations and the unshakebale feeling that the nation is about to enter World War 3… It seems the pendulum is swinging back towards left-wing politics.
It appears that the success of Mamdani isn’t so much a vote against Trumpian politics, but more a vote against the stale nothingness of the Democrats top brass – who, while pitching themselves as the progressive option in America’s political system, very seldom action – or even – offer – left-wing policies.
What I’m not shocked about is that they’re so out of touch with what we want.
they’re aware of what we need; they’re just placing their desire to become richer ahead of it.
Pelosian ethics is a discussion of competing conceptions of the good for Pelosi.
I haven’t thought about her in a while but I kind of assumed she just turned to dust and blew away at some point.
Afaik she had a house dropped on her. Not sure who got the slippers.
Steven crowder is probably wearing them with a dress as we speak.

They’re not though. Every time Democrats have “voted blue no matter who” they’ve told their leaders that the party is on the right path.
I still bet they’re gonna find a way to ignore the results and give us status cuomo.
Presumably Cuomo will run ‘independent’ with the full support of the DNC, then when they split the vote and a Republican wins, they’ll balme progressives for voting wrong in the primary
Subversion is the name of their game. They’d rather lose than put a Progressive in power.
I was wondering about this. If they openly ratfuck Mamdani, that will radicalize a lot of people. If I’m a Clintonite dem/AIPAC agent, maybe I want Zohran to win and then undermine and sabotage his administration as much as possible instead.
Either him or Adams
Who is they? The article doesn’t mention anybody specific, just make shit up as you go?
The. Democrats. It’s literally in the title, pal.
So nobody specific, got it.
