It's almost as though people want good policies. Bah, the people are fools! Let's move further to the right to capture moderates!
-Dems
Actual quote from an actual dem who really exists unlike those strawmen you and the article are chasing:
~Bill Clinton, the 42nd president of the United States of America
Here's also a quote from an actual dem.
"Socialist Zohran Mamdani is too extreme to lead New York City. His entire campaign has been built on unachievable promises and higher taxes, which is the last thing New York needs.
Beyond that, Mr. Mamdani has called to defund the police and has demonstrated a deeply disturbing pattern of unacceptable antisemitic comments which stoke hate at a time when antisemitism is skyrocketing. He is the absolute wrong choice for New York."
~Laura Gillen, current U.S. Rep. from the Democratic Party.
Sounds like they didn't like him and are already relying on the old anti-semitism defense.
You think a house representative getting roasted on Social Media has more sway than Bill Clinton?
You think a current US representative has less sway than an impeached former president who cheated on his wife? Were talking about the Democratic base here, not the Republican one.
You know he endorsed Cuomo, right?
Yeah, and? Cuomo was the HUD secretary for the Clinton administration, Cuomo and Mamdani are both Democrats participating in a party primary.
No, the primary is over and the sex pest you wanted LOST.
You're too far gone. We can't save you.
Nice argument, I really like how you subverted the expectations of shallow internet commentary by providing concise but thought provoking appeals to reasons backed by data and facts and also that you provided actionable alternatives to my ideal course of action.
So long…
Too many 3 and 4 syllable words for you?
The fucking moderates are left at this point.
No, they are still fascists, have always been fascist, and only give us the least concessions they can to preserve their own offshore accounts and insider trading. They used to be controlled opposition, and they don't even bother with that, anymore.
