"I love to visit New York City. It's a thriving metropolis that boasts delicious food, world-class entertainment and iconic landmarks. But I'd never want to live there. It's expensive and dirty, and New Yorkers have a history of electing Democratic mayors."
"Now, New Yorkers have discovered a zeal for Democratic mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani, a self-described democrat socialist, showing a penchant for leaning left even more."
"It's a mistake to prop up socialism as a solution to New Yorkers' affordability problems. But the more I've seen of Mamdani's campaign, the more I think a full-throated case for why New Yorkers should vote him in as mayor may be in order."
"This doesn't matter to the press. In 2021, he made Prospect magazine's list of " The world's top 50 thinkers." The New York Times Magazine published glowing praise of the front-runner in the mayoral race: "Inside the Improbable, Audacious and (So Far) Unstoppable Rise of Zohran Mamdani," an Oct. 14 headline for the feature reads.
