Great opportunity to get famous and secure funds for anyone with some grifting skills.
Importantly, there are hundreds of million of dollars of capital available to back a competitor to Mamdani that can be put together overnight (believe me, I am in the text strings and the WhatsApp groups) so that a great alternative candidate won’t spend any time raising funds. So, if the right candidate would raise his or her hand tomorrow, the funds will pour in. I am sure that Mike Bloomberg will share his how-to-win-the-mayoralty IP and deliver his entire election apparatus and system to the aspiring candidate so that the candidate can focus all of his or her energy on the campaign. One unfortunate fact, as far as I understand, is that the candidate will have to be a write-in as I believe that none of the current candidates established a nominating committee if they were to withdraw, which means that no one can take their spot on the ballot.

Happy for you
Or sorry that happened
For once in my life, for just a few seconds, I was disappointed I don’t live in NYC.
As soon as I got to the part where he says it can’t be his policies, if has to be his personality and age, I knew this was some lib shit.

A reply
TLDR: Ackman says he will fund a write-in candidate for NYC Mayor but he wants to crowdsource suggestions.
He wants to give a bunch of money to a write in candidate before NYC becomes a failed city like Chicago (???)
