Beat me to it. No longer are they dreaming of what things will look like, they are seeing the results and the reality of what it looks like to have someone actually care about their well being. May we all be so lucky, honestly.

No way! There's LOTS of... um... {insert preferred term for "strenuous activities" here} left to return to the ruling class. The fun(d)s just getting started!

And since The Constitution says Trump can't run again, it doesn't matter that The Constitution says Mamdani can't run either!

Non-american here, why wouldn't Mamdani not be able to run for president?

Gotta be born American.

Like, there's been debate about children of US military born overseas, even in a US military base which is for all intents legally American soil.

Edit:

And to clarify, Mamdani ain't trying to change that

People just started saying it.
