Zohran Mamdani’s economic promises consist of things the mayor doesn’t have the legal authority to do and things that there isn’t enough money to implement.
His government grocery stores plan was based on an accounting error.
Many of his other promises are based on powers that the mayor’s office doesn’t have.
If you think that Mamdani is serious about any of these things, then that’s a takedown. But he isn’t. The grab bag of leftist fantasies is there to reel in leftists, many of whom are well off and wouldn’t have the faintest idea if any of these things actually happen.
But where Bernie Sanders is probably hypothetically serious about trying to implement some of his plans (but probably would spend most of his time banging on the table, yelling at his staff and recording TikToks yelling about billionaires), Mamdani like AOC isn’t.
And where AOC uses this stuff to get more famous and powerful, Mamdani is a product of the red-green alliance, but I suspect he’s much less serious about the ‘red stuff’ than the ‘green stuff’.
The Muslim areas which turned out bloc votes to push him through aren’t interested in his program of defunding the police, raising taxes or direct socialism, not unless it directly benefits them.
He may not be really serious about government grocery stores, but I suspect he’s quite serious about outlawing most Jewish organizations in New York City. And I imagine he’s got plans for the NYPD, that don’t involve defunding it, but does involve turning it into a counterpart of the Met Police, tasked with cracking down on Islamophobia. The Communism isn’t coming, but the Islamism is.
Marxism comes from religion. It is religion disguised as secular science. Marxism leads back to theocracy.
“I believe that the medievals understood much better than the moderns on what basis to build a totalitarian society that would last and not collapse in less than a century. They did it and the people in the rising religious movement today know that full well. They’re the ones who have millions, upon millions, upon millions, of followers and a real insight into the fact that economics is not the crucial factor, but philosophy and culture are…. Religion has been the root of [totalitarianism] from the beginning, it has ruled in disguised forms, and still is, and now the disguise had to be stripped off… What socialism is doing is really helping religion, the bigger the statism, the more people grow accustomed to government rule over everything, the more people are ready for religionists to take over the lead from the more secular side… The socialists are building the basis for totalitarianism but only the religionists are going to cash in on it and take over.” – Leonard Peikoff

That’s an objective assessment of religion. Many in this forum have a problem with objectivity and aren’t going to like. Critiquing religion is a perilous endeavor.
Yes, he’s a complete fraud, as his multiple fake accents confirm.
Somebody please “assassinate” him. Not that killing a nobody would be an assassination.
Exactly, Daniel. You’re the first to say it, I think. Thank you.
May Allah give him warts, and send him bedbugs for company.
And ass worms, too.
My only hope and prayer is two fold.
Number 1: this POS liar, fraud and danger to USA is not elected.
Number 2: this POS liar, fraud and danger to USA is deported for being a 100% danger to the citizens of USA and the national security and sovereignty of USA.
If we do not understand the devil and the machinations thereof, we are doomed!
Genesis 16:12 And he will be a wild man; his hand will be against every man, and every man’s hand against him; and he shall dwell in the presence of all his brethren.
Reportedly, Pam Bondi and Marco Rubio are looking into his potential deportation. I’m not going to hold my breath, though.
The Islamic principle for his subterfuge is called “taqiyya”.
After seeing the immediate obedience of NY’ers during the Covid scamdemic to the “mandates” re: masks, 6 ft. distancing, taking the clot shot w/o questioning any of this insanity, I believe that this psycho putz wannabe dictator could get away with anything.
Dr. Sowell’s take on Mamdani is beyond outstanding!!!!!!!!
“If you wanted to dismantle a city without firing a single shot, you wouldn’t need bombs, you’d need ballots.”
“Zoran Mamdani isn’t a glitch in the system, he is the logical conclusion of a political class that treats self loathing as moral sophistication…”
What we are watching is not progress, it is regression sold as virtue subsidized by tax payers and applauded by media outlets too ideologically invest to admit failure…..”
Yet Trump says he is just a Communist. Who to believe? I’d say Daniel!
