The more I read and learn about this man, the more I like him. He’s a politician with a heart; a rare commodity these days. I think he’s going to surprise a lot of people. We shall see.

To all the tired old Democrats on this site, who’ve spent a decade defending Hillary by claiming that Bernie would have lost to Trump in 2016, I give you Mamdani. You were all wrong in 2016 and you’re wrong now. Hillary actually did lose (and no, winning the popular vote is irrelevant). Bernie would clearly have beaten an incoherent Trump but the Clintons owned the fucking DNC, another corrupt, clueless unAmerican shithole that needs to be disbanded immediately after the RNC is. We need new ideas, new leadership and people unafraid to work for the American people. Hillary was and is a loathsome, selfish moronic corporate stooge. So, now every time you think about Mamdani, think about where we could be as a country had Hillary actually given more of a fuck about us than she did about her fucking self.

So, everything that is wrong, chaotic, evil, etc is Hilliary Clinton’s fault…

Grow Up Kid, just your misguided opinion. Not helpful.

He did pretty well for a guy who was running against the entire DNC, corporate democrats and a corrupt and compliant media. Imagine if all the money in this country wasn’t working overtime to brainwash you and buy the outcome that protected them, their privilege and their money. Just imagine if such a thought could even get through all those generations of brainwashing.

Riiight. He did so well, he lost.

By landslides. Twice. In January 2020 had a $210 million war chest and was out of the race less than three months later. It is underreported this was the largest presidential campaign collapse in modern history.

But, hey, fantasy worlds really are lovely places.

What is also true is Zohran Mamdani is far more talented, especially in the arena of social intelligence. In that he is in a class by himself.
