    Of course it’s possible. We cannot allow it within our society, and it’s certainly illegal to do so. The only thing that stops the people who uphold the law from ignoring the law is if people actually stand up to it, since clearly our separation of powers has failed us.

      No they won’t, New York has it’s own political capital in the form of a massive city that centralizes international trade and politics, and a tight-knight community around that culture. This is why his election is such a huge deal.

      Whoever in the administration is still talking about this is just babbling nonsense for their base so they can look like they’re big strong tough guys who are fighting the eeeevil brown people communists.

      If they actually made a plan to deport the fucking mayor of NEW YORK it would get shot down by every court in the land. They know this, everyone with a brain knows this, so that should tell you who this narrative is being written for.

    Just come out and say it you fucking cowards: you are simply racist and have hatred towards Palestinians.

    I will dislike you more, but at least you are honest in this regard.

      I would actually dislike them less if they would just fucking own up to their own bigot shit. They love being Schrodinger’s racists, though

    A great American city is on the precipice of being run by a communist who has publicly embraced a terroristic ideology,” Representative Andy Ogles from the Republican party said

    What the fuck are these cretins on?

    Is anyone left from Hitler a “communist” now?

      Literally and without exaggeration, yes, that’s what they truly believe.

      They know that nobody with a red hat as EVER read or listened to an actual thing Mamdani has ever said. They could say he flew one of the planes on 9/11 and most of the base would believe it.

      What do you mean “now?” Americans have had this habit of calling anyone whose politics they disapprove of a “communist” or “socialist” for a very long time.

      I’m starting to think the GOP got Quantum Leaped by the party from the 80s. Not going be surprised if we start seeing persecution of the color red.

        I’d be a little surprised given how tightly the Republican party has taken to using red as their representative colour (and blue for Democrats).

    Possible? Absolutely.

    Likely? I dont think so. Stripping a person of citizenship because they are of the opposing party feels like a line in the sand. How do you defend that? At that point its over for America. Like pack it up and every person who is not a straight white christian should be looking to get the fuck out

    It is possible, obviously. It might not be legal, but we all know that doesn’t stop the Trump admin.

    Given the turnout and hype around the election, a riot would ensue if the losers took away citizenship to deprive the winner of their winnings.

    I wouldn’t be surprised to see them try. It’s painfully obvious they want to start violence so they can justify martial law. Republicans are literal traitors to US ideals and it sickens me to see. All my life I’ve had to hear these dumb yokel fucks go on and on about how much they supposedly love this nation, but they couldn’t care less.
