I mean yeah we should always be cautious about overestimating how much the electeds will do for the socialist movement. However, a big part of AOC’s faltering was that she was one rep in a sea of bloodthirsty establishment dems and she didn’t have the spine for it. Mamdani would be the executive, which would give him way more leverage at the City government level, even if it’s lower on the hierarchy than AOC.
Oooo okay, damn well then when you put it like that I'm really curious to see how this pans out and will hope he doesn't sell out. Will not hold my breath though
