If there is one takeaway from Zohran Mamdani’s victory in the New York City Democratic mayoral primary on Tuesday, it’s that there is no one takeaway. The democratic socialist and his wide-ranging canvassing team built a coalition that brought in voters of all backgrounds, leading to a defeat of Andrew Cuomo by a significant margin. […]
It was a stupid hateful thing, but it was a thing his base wanted.
Biden/Kamala didn’t, at every opportunity they’d talk about their similarities to trump on things like Palestine, the border, healthcare, fracking, pretty much any question they asked they’d say they mostly agree with trump, but have slight differences.
That was trying to get people to vote against trump due to a slight difference, still voting against trump because the difference made trump worse.
So yeah…
That’s the largest reason trump is president again.
Everyone knows that the current system is broken. Trunp has been saying that he will tear the system down while the Dems have been going on about how everything is actually great. People don’t care what the change is, they just want something different.
Yea but the left also does the same. They don’t say everything is going great. But they do exactly the same thing they did last time they said everything was terrible. Therefore they must think what they do works pretty well otherwise you’d think they’d change their methods at some point right?
Like how many things does PETA need to change themselves to before you stop eating hamburgers ya know?
How many people can we fit into a street and how many heads need to be caved in before the left gets some higher taxes right?
If the communist left somehow elected a candidate that sends the Superpolice to billionaire’s homes and kidnap them to el salvador, everyone else would probably be like “it’s just crazy people wanted that”
While those things had an affect, I don’t think they were the main reason. The Dems sitting on their ass when they had a chance to fix things, their pandering to the rich, their pro-war stance, and their general disdain for the desires of their voting base were a much bigger reason.
Is that why trump won?
He gave people something to vote for…

Yes? What makes you think otherwise?
It’s just crazy people wanted that

No, Trump won because of foreign influence primarily from Russia. Also he had help from the billionaire class and the GOP propaganda machine.
Together they were able to tip the scales less than what Trump lost by in 2020.
They accomplished this by convincing democratic voters to either not vote or to vote for Trump.

Money makes or breaks elections.
I think Dems would’ve lost by much more if they didn’t work with the rich, the military industry, etc.
For example, the progressives that lost their elections because AIPAC funded their opposition.
