      XPost: alt.politics.republicans, talk.politics.guns, sac.politics       XPost: alt.society.liberalism       From: invalid@dont-email.me              New Yorkers on the street were asked about radical Muslim socialist       Zohran Mamdani's recent victory in the state's Democratic primary       race and his agenda. The answers they gave should scare the hell       out of all Democrats.              Speaking on Wednesday to Fox News' "The Faulkner Focus," ordinary       people in the city were interviewed about Mamdani, and it was clear       that not one of them plans to vote for the candidate when he faces       off in November against former Democratic New York Governor Andrew       Cuomo and incumbent NY Mayor Eric Adams.              "I just think Mamdani would be terrible for the city," one man       said. "It would implode the city."              READ MORE: Dem Strategist Makes Gruesome Wish for Country in Order       for His Party to Win              Obama Bros Raise Big Warning With New Data Showing Dems in 'Deep       Trouble'              Another man replied, "I don't support him. I think he's too       radical."              One man said he was "not a fan. Government-run grocery stores,       that's ridiculous. That's what they do in communist countries. I'm       hoping for a miracle, someone else, Eric Adams, or someone wins."              Another added simply, "He's an idiot."              While a fifth person responded, "That's not what we want for New       York, do we?"              One lady had quite possibly the smartest response when she took       Mamdani down for his communist agenda.              "He thinks he's gonna give everything free," she said. "Where's the       money gonna come from?              READ MORE: Carville Sounds Alarm About 'Gift To Republicans' Of       Socialist Mayoral Primary Victory              AOC Parades Her New Bestie Mamdani Around Washington, DC As the DNC       Keeps Their Distance              I am unsure what the likelihood is that the Fox News crew only       spoke to people who were against Mamdani, but their answers should       provide some kind of warning to Democrats that not everyone in       their party supports the radical agenda coming from the likes of       Mamdani, NY Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and more.              My colleague Becky Noble reported on how AOC has embraced Mamdani       despite his obvious communist agenda, even parading him on       Wednesday around Washington, D.C.              AOC said that she is eager for her colleagues to meet Mamdani "face       to face," and "hear what he has to say about making New York       affordable for working people."              As much as AOC has accepted him, there are moderates still in the       party who are staying as far away from him as possible during his       little field trip to the nation's capital.              However, leaders of the party, such as Senate Minority Leader Chuck       Schumer (NY) and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (NY),       recognize that Mamdani's candidacy is a problem that gets even       bigger if he wins. Neither has endorsed Mamdani, but both claim       meetings are scheduled. Rep. Tom Suozzi (D-NY) is one of the few       New York City-area Democrats who has been a vocal critic of Mamdani.              Veteran Democrat strategist James Carville has also tried to sound       the alarm to the Democratic party, labeling Mamdani's primary       victory a "potentially damaging event," RedState reported.              Zohran Mamdani is an avowed Democratic Socialist and has a real       chance to become the next mayor of New York City.              https://redstate.com/katie-jerkovich/2025/07/16/hes-an-idiot-new-       yorkers-asked-about-mamdani-and-their-answers-speak-volumes-n2191728                      --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
