I never see a video involving Mamdani that doesn’t impress me. New York would be crazy to not elect this guy.

If you’re keeping up with what is going on with U.S. politics, things seem to be disintegrating quite rapidly.

Food benefits have already or set to be stopped for about 42 million people and healthcare insurance costs are about to rise to the point where even moderately comfortable people won’t be able to afford it.

To compound things public education is stunted, agriculture is kneecapped by tariffs and militarized thugs are attacking innocent people.

China and Russia have played a blinder with this one.

What are the Dems doing in response?

Usual Idpol neoliberal drones?

Do they have someone good for the midterms? Mamdani is their future but they don’t want to go there lol

They’ve been captured by the same forces so I’d bet the farm they’ll just continue letting the Republicans do what they want.

Unfortunately I think the electoral system in the U.S. is not going to rectify anything. SCOTUS is getting ready to gut the Voting Rights Act. Americans are in such a trance that even if elections were free and fair they would likely elect another monster.

There were so many fireworks going off round here tonight that I thought Trump had died.

Forgot it’s Haloween, the traditional UK festival to celebrate the start of a week of teenagers randomly letting off fireworks.

Dick Cheney, one of the most evil men of the 21st century, has died after living a long life free of any prosecutions for waging a phony war in the Middle East

Looks like almost all of the gang has made it to the party in hell. Rumsfeld, Powell and Cheney.

Just waiting on Dubya.

Really sad that not a single one of them was ever held to account for what they did. Absolutely disgusting how many people died and were displaced because of them cunts.

The BBC piece on him apart from all the respectful glazing is amusing. They noted he voted Democrat against Trump.

Somehow my opinion on Trump slightly improved from this revelation lol.

Bush should really be thankful for Trump. Firmly pushed him into second place as the most incompetent post war President.

Curious to see how Trump makes his life difficult and how Zohran navigates to keep his promises

I’m so happy for him and Trump’s New York threats won’t hold any weight. He just cannot sabotage New York City it’s far too big for the countries GDP and undoubtedly the financial hub of America.

I just hope that he is who he has portrayed himself to be and that lawmakers don’t make it difficult for him to initiate change.

I read some that a million people will ‘flee’ NY after this victory. What a great time to invest in some New York real estate! :arteta:
