Mayor says progressive peers who swept primaries speak to Americans ācoast to coastā as moderates have reservations
Zohran Mamdani, the New York City mayor, said on Sunday that he and a slew of democratic socialist allies who prevailed in recent primary elections are carrying a ānational messageā to struggling working Americans hungry for a new kind of politics ācoast to coastā.
Mamdani made that triumphant clarion call on ABC Newsās This Week just five days after he had seen his endorsed candidates win Democratic nominations in three races for New York congressional seats, as well as for five state legislature positions in Albany. He made no effort to disguise his delight that his clean sweep marks a dramatic shift in Democratic politics ā not just in New York City, which he has led since January, but also across the US.
He said that collectively they were carrying a āNew Deal understandingā of Democratic politics to Congress and on to the ānational stageā. It spoke, he said, to Americans feeling exhaustion at struggling to make ends meet āevery single dayā.
Hey you! Keep breathing.
There, now if you keep breathing then youāre only doing it because I told you to. I canāt believe you would surrender your own free will to me that easily. What, do you really expect me to believe it was just a coincidence that you kept breathing after I told you to? What a brainless sheep.
This is a sad attempt to misinterpret was I was saying entirely. And since youāre going through this whole thread harrassing me about every comment, youāre being blocked now. Goodbye.
Not even a little bit. Itās the same flawed logic youāre using.
And Iām not harassing you. Just because youāre so wrong that a bunch of people tell you youāre wrong, and they donāt relent even when you double-down about how right you think you are and how everyone else is the dumbass, doesnāt mean the people disagreeing with you are harassing you.
Go ahead and block me though, thatās just one less dumbass I have to encounter on the fediverse.
