Ok, so why is the right so terrified of this guy? (keep in mind, this asshole is a sitting U.S. congressman calling for his deportation).
Perhaps partially because Mamdani is calling for inexpensive city-run grocery stores and other programs to benefit the poor and working class.
But even more so because of what his victory represents: The mass outrage of the U.S. public, over half of whom cannot afford the basic necessities of life, at the billionaire class, as it strips away the minimum safety net that previously existed, loots the government coffers, and gives itself massive tax cuts, while promoting genocide, environmental devastation, and world war.
God forbid other Mamdanis start winning in D.C., Atlanta, Houston, Chicago, and Los Angeles.
So, what should we expect next?
Ans: Cuomo 2.0, running as an independent in the general election, courting the votes of so-called moderate Dems, as well as the Republicans, and quite possibly becoming the next mayor of NYC, just like Brown did to Black Lives Matters activist India Walton in the 2021 race for mayor of Buffalo.
