    I wonder if he's ever talked about how he plans to pay for all the new government providing all the free stuff.

    Education is extremely important.

      Duh. Rich people. If there are any left there after the election.

      I really think he will just assure a GOP mayor.

        He has a tax plan but it all has to be approved by the state. I don’t know all the details, but I think ever since the city needed to be bailed out in the 70s (remember the NYPost famous headline- Ford to City: Drop Dead) the state has some veto power over the public fisc.

          My concern is the anti-Mamdani vote will be split. There will be the GOP guy, Adams as an independent, and possibly Cuomo - he is considering running as an independent.

          The GOP guy ran before. He’s the founder of the Guardian Angels.

            It will leave them ready for the next Rudy.

            A couple observations- first, I cannot believe NYC would elect a Muslim mayor after 9/11. Second, if there’s any city that needs a bare knuckles brawler it’s NYC. That mayor is up against all the most powerful players and factions one can imagine. I don’t know whether he has the stones for it, but I doubt it.

              Really? Those four are the best we have to offer? Lord help us and vote for Cuomo.

                  He calls himself Trump’s Nightmare. I think it’s more like Trump’s Wet Dream. The more guys like this are in public eye and in positions of power, the stronger you make Trump.

                        Hard to imagine anti-Zionist or antisemite winning in Jew York, even if he has the D next to his name.

                          He’s actually got a fair amount of “progressive” Jew support. The Jewish comptroller has been very public in his support. He really plays into the anti-Zionism ≠ antisemite.

                            I haven’t followed Lander much (the comptroller) but I thought their co-endorsement was tactical given the ranked-choice voting. Let’s see if it continues into the general.

                              He got the wealthy college educated white person vote. Progressive Jews will be a big part of that. The people in the parts of the city he aims to help most directly with his helpful socialism, voted mostly for Cuomo.

                                I know a Jew who jews for a living that made a social media commercial for him.

                                Flip description but he makes his living touring internationally with a klezmer band and has a won a Grammy. I was shocked when I saw him supporting Momdani.
