Is Mamdani moderating?

Isn't this a good thing, that he's able to use his charm to get Trump on board with his plans to help the working people of NYC? Why hasn't any other democrat been able to work Trump in this way? He's a vapid demented idiot entirely susceptible to flattery and manipulation. Alm Mamdani had to do was show up, smile, make his pitch, and show Trump how it would benefit him. And now he's getting whatever he wants from him, and using it in service of the people who elected him. It's insanity that liberals/establishment dems are trying to make this out to be bad.

Trump has limited ability to focus as well as follow through on commitments. Many folks in his first term tried that and the deal may have lasted a day. Remains to be seen what will happen with NYC (from where I am typing this on the UWS). Mamdani may have more success because he doesn't have a criminal indictment and Trump still wants to be liked by NYers regardless of whatever crap he talks about the city. You have to remember, Trump always carries around the outerborough chip on his shoulder. I know so many folks who grew up bridge and tunnel and none of them have the issues that Trump has with their origin story.

So did Gov Whitmer. It's making her very popular. I thought people didn't like TDS, which is is!?!?

I’ve heard several pundits discuss this. Whitmer’s incident at the White House was very early and she handled it badly, but she was essentially doing the same thing as Mamdani is - trying to get federal money for state projects. Does he get a pass because he’s a man, or young? Did Trump give her a harder time because he wanted to squash her presidential chances, while Mamdani doesn’t have any? Is it just that he did it more confidently than she did? Ir because he’s less popular now so it’s seen as more trolling than begging? It’s an interesting thought exercise. Whitmer is very popular in Michigan but I don’t think she’s going to be near the top if she runs in 2028 and that’s part of why IMO. Democratic voters want people who are fighting/standing up to Trump.

Either you're a bot or you can't confront you've been scammed by yet another phony compulsive lying politician installed into power; i.e. cognitive dissonance. There's jack squat "grass roots" about Mamdani. He was installed by the same forces behind mayor Adams, de Blasio, Bloomberg... and yes, Trump. At this point voting in this country is as pointless as writing a letter to Santa.

This is BS. He's delivering. This is what delivering looks like. Democrats do it so rarely, some of you seem unable to recognize it when you see it. He is getting the things done that he promised he would. His approval ratings are through the roof.

And you are a bot or foreign agent attempting to suppress the vote. Voting is not pointless. We just need better candidates outside the establishment that has been bought by the wealthy and foreign interests. Mamdani is evidence of that, and that why you're terrified of him.

They want him to fail so badly that even as he succeeds, they have a problem with how he does it.
