    Despite all the headlines, I really hope Mamdani’s team has a damn good plan, because they’re going to be attacked pretty hard from all sides in the general. I wish they guy success, but the establishment’s going to fight him tooth and nail.

      Yeah, it’s going to be crazy. The scariest part is that most people communicate using platforms that (being generous) will not benefit from his policies.

      I’m still optimistic they can get people hyped up for the class war.

      Never heard of this Mamdani, but if trump hates them, pretty good chance they’re on the right side of history.

      The answer has always been to lean into it, not fight it.

      It’s like jumping off a bridge cuz someone called you a nerd, even tho the bridge isn’t over water.

      Can’t take the bait.

    Republicans and Democrats are scared shitless of this guy. And all he is, is a primary winner for mayor.

    If it’s that easy, I say go fucking go Mamdani!

    Good luck to America on this grueling quest to become a democratic nation. I’m rooting for you, but I am not too hopeful.

    When every democratic politician left of Pat Buchanan for the last 30 years has been called a RADICAL SOCIALIST LUNATIC, not sure what impact “no, but really this time!” is expected to have.

      Half of people on lemmy don’t know the difference, expecting it of trump is straight up delusional.

    Well The Traitor-in-Chief just said Birthright Citizenship is over. Does this mean Mamdani is going to be abducted and trafficked?

    The people need to unite in the streets right now! We need 10+million in Washington DC. The Manswarm must converge!
