"I liked his policies, mainly his support for education and affordable housing, said Shirley Wong, 70, of Bensonhurst, referring to Mamdani. “He seems to listen to us.”

But less than a year ago, Wong cast her ballot for Trump. She cited the influx of migrants in her neighborhood, as well as the cost of living under President Joe Biden. But now, Wong said she regretted voting for Trump, citing the Big Beautiful Bill’s projected cuts to Medicaid

    Mamdani LITERALLY converts Trump voters into non-trump-voters.

    Of COURSE the democrat party hates him; he exposes their grift and gets their prey to pay attention!

      Zohran keeps things on policy, which is the only arena the personality cult and party faithful can’t go.

        Precisely. They figured out how to rake in billions of dollars through losing elections. All the money they raise, poof: gone! Gone to “strategists” and “consultants” and “advertising agencies” and all manner of other bullshit that are just legitimate-sounding names for fences who launder the money for them.

        It’s like the plot of The Producers:
        “you can make more money with a flop than a hit!”
