He reminds me of a 5th grader running for student council "better school lunches, more recess!!".
Just say what everyone would clearly want without any idea of how to make it happen: "free child care, rent control, cheaper groceries".
How could he possibly make any of these things happen?
Take the free child care...are there enough providers? Enough actually locations? Who pays for all this?
Rent control? There already is rent control.
State run grocery stores? What? How? Where? When? Who?
All the question words apply and he never seems to directly answer logistical questions other that to say "tax the wealthy".
This guy is a good talker, I'll give him that.


He actually explains how he will fund these things if you care to find out.

Cities run public water so is that any different than a grocery store in all honesty? A store per borough is not going to hurt anybody. Competition is the spirit of capitalism and government and politicians are already entangled in big business. Didn’t Hillary sit on the board for Walmart? Isn’t that kinda the same thing as a government run grocery store? If politicians are lobbying for Tyson food, Monsanto, Walmart, Amazon, then what difference does it make?


When I was a kid, and poor, we used to get food from the "government store." I remember big blocks of government cheese. Why not just return to those days? It's probably easier than securing a building, hiring staff to run the store, and managing logistics of food delivery, storage, and distribution.


That’s literally what he’s asking for. A government store.

Did the government store you went to not have workers and was it not in a building? I really don’t understand this point about the logistics being difficult. In the rural cities or states, city run groceries already exist. NYC surprisingly doesn’t have that many grocery chains. It’s not a driver town first of all so maybe that limits the amount of income stores make. People only buy what they can carry home via walk or public transport. Ny has tons of McDonald’s, Duane reades, candy/convenience stores, Starbucks, even juice bars and liquor stores but not that many supermarkets or grocery stores for a city of that size.


The government bought the milk to subsidize milk farmers, paid to have it made into cheese, and gave it away for free from a warehouse. It was nothing like a government run grocery store.

It really feels like that

Certainly more energy and more vocal than about anything Trump is doing right now

Remember bill Clinton? He won some of the south. Kamala was raised in Canada, Obama in Indonesia. I don’t mind it personally because I love global perspective but for many Americans who don’t have a passport and never leave their state, these candidates aren’t relatable to them.


These candidates are from an elite global class who can’t relate to average Americans.

That’s on the candidates, not the population at large.

Mamdani wants to make city buses "free".

So it'll become like San Francisco and LA where the homeless sleep on the buses all day.

"Hey bus driver... wake me up after we've done the loop four times and we're at the Embarcadero"

This guy is so brilliant!

Dems need this guy to normalize the current left as mainstream. In other words, AOC will look like a centrist compared to Zohran.

She is probably a centrist in most of the civilized world. Trump might be doing is a favor in the long run.

She IS a centrist in the rest of the civilized world. There's a whole spectrum of politics to the left of liberal democrats, but the US political system is stunted. It's why universal Healthcare is still being debated and talked about like a pipe dream, but is a fact of life in the rest of the Western world, or why we still don't have paid parental leave, or why our young people are still bankrupting themselves to get an education. Our quality of life lags so far behind every other developed nation because our two major parties do not serve the interests of working people but rather corporations and big donors.

Oh, so stupid. Making businesses actually pay the taxes they owe. How crazy and un-American!


I know, how stupid!! Why pay double the corporate, income and property taxes in New York City when you can operate elsewhere and pay less taxes and live in a well-run metro area without a communist idiot as a Mayor.

Duhhhhh! How silly and stupid!


No, no matter where the company is if they do business with NyC they be paying us more taxes! Visits, mtgs, WFH people, sales, clients, whatever we will be taxing you no matter where you be at.
Mambani said so. I saw it in X. He was in the club partying and he promises.


Yeah, you're not a racist at all. 🙄

The buses in Richmond are all free. It works fine.

The naïveté of someone who thinks there is any comparison between SF, LA, NYC and Richmond.

Honestly I wouldn’t be surprised if mossad agents tried to kill him. The islamaphobia is at all time highs.

Congratulations New York. You've once again won the false flag bingo.

Please dcum. Get the hell out of NY as fast as you can. Run if you have to. Mamdani will lead to NY being Gaza'd is what I get from this message.

Mamdani's base of voters is rich, highly educated and white while he claims to stand for working class people of color. What do you all make of the fact that the people he allegedly represents did not vote for him and do not want him?

(A recent Emerson poll projects him winning 57 per cent of white voters, but only 26 per cent of Black voters and 35 per cent of Hispanic voters. While 57 per cent of college-educated voters support Mamdani, only 23 per cent of those without a college degree do.)

Well considering Israelis would kill their own prime minister for even slowing the tiniest indication of wanting peace, it goes without saying that Mamdani has a big target on his back
