None of what he is doing is unique. There are plenty of dem candidates that have listened to people over money. dems are worried about associating with him because he has controversial opinions that might not go down so well outside of NY. Pretty much everything you've said is just fantasy you've invented.
Except that what he’s doing he can actually do. Someone who ends up in Washington and gets outvoted by the majority centrists isn’t a bad thing, and actually sorta helps their image without forcing any real change. Mamdani, though, he’s the top dog in a mayoral position and can actually get shit done. They’re scared of him not because his ideas are unique but because they can actually be realized at this scale.
How can you say that when hes only just won and still hasnt done anything?
Because I know how cities work, ya dingus.
What is he doing/done that would actually a game changer? Tell me why I should be excited about him because it seems to be that the only unique thing about him is he openly criticizes isreal. Dont get me wrong, I like most of his policies and I think hes an ok mayoral choice I just dont see the reason for the excitement and I feel like all the "establisment is scared" articles are fake hype by PR firms.
I was with you until the sentence you concluded with, which is frankly categorical bullshit.
ok? I dont hate Mandami I just think most of his policies are meh and as far as left wing candiates go hes weak.
You’re entitled to that opinion; I’m entitled to disagree with your opinion.
Just one thing to add here, respectfully.
You're both entitled to deez nutz.
