Are You Rooting For Zorhan Mamdani To Win In New York?

[Billlewis]

I'm definitely rooting for him to win -- because it will destroy NYC, and hurt the Dems immeasurably on the world stage.

The funniest thing about that commie clown is, he is promising the leftist in the city the moon and he can’t deliver on any of his promises.
Examples:
Lowering rent - The mayor doesn’t and can’t lower the price of rent
Making buses free - buses are controlled by the state not city
A city run grocery store - there are so many things wrong with this I don’t know where to start.
Single store - no buying power costs will be higher
You need more government workers to run, you need a building…. All these costs will be large and past onto the tax payer (so zero advantage over a normal store).
Tax the rich - the rich will just leave (many have already).
There is more and it’s all the same. It’s all crap he cannot actually deliver.

As much as I understand that point of view, "destroying the village in order to save it", as the legend of the American officer's press statement in Vietnam, is counter productive.

As for New York City, if only Curtis "Guardian Angel" Sliwa can pull it off...

i never thought of it that way history says it won't work but what kind of people live in nyc

Want him to win as he is the best to fix NYC

[Billlewis]

Ha, ha... that's a good one... you think he's going to fix New York, using a system of government that has never even once in history been successful... amazing...

If he wants to shit the bed in New York to promote a lasting healthy real estate market in Florida, that sounds good to me. Keep the good times coming.

Fuck no but in a way I am. Like a typical socialist he’s going to get money for his programs by he says taxing the wealthy and corporations. Well I predict if he wins there will be a mass exodus of the very money he’s targeted. So I’m wanting to see where he’ll get his money when that leaves.

I am sad to see NYC like this, but if his election gets people to realize how awful his policies are then that will be a good thing in the long run. However, we also run the risk of people actually liking it despite it essentially turning NYC into the third world like it did to Dearborn, MI or being too afraid to fight back because they are scared shitless of being targets of violence due to making fun of the "religion of peace."

An ethnic Indian, born in Africa, who practices Islam and Liberalism. What a combo! Whatever, it's not my city, and I don't plan to visit, so I don't care. Let them get what they voted for.

[Surely]

Somehow, the working taxpayers will have to bail out New York City. Even those of us that don’t live there!

[Cidknee]

I say let God's will be done. I can't route for a freak to win though. 😅

[Anonymous]

I'm not from New York, and I don't know who he is...

[XXblack88]

I'm not sure who he is so I don't know

[noohair]
