If Zohran Mamdani wins tomorrow, he’ll have defeated not just Andrew Cuomo and Curtis Sliwa. He’ll have defeated DoorDash, Airbnb, Mike Bloomberg, Walmart heiress Alice Walton, Bill Ackman, and a long list of billionaire donors.
In Zohran Mamdani’s Win, Socialism Beat the Status Quo

Remember to vote tomorrow in New York! Bear in mind that a vote for Curtis is really a vote for Mumdumi or whatever his name is. VOTE CUOMO!

Sad to see democratic socialists like Bernie and @AOC do things like buy winter coats and get haircuts. Don’t they know that real socialists avoid purchasing goods and services?

“I’m not Bernie Sanders,” Joe Biden said at the Brookings Institution. “I don’t think 500 billionaires are the reason why we’re in trouble. The folks at the top are not bad guys... wealthy Americans are just as patriotic as poor folks.” Well, glad we got that cleared up.
