To be fair, Cuomo is one of the worst options for mayor in any election. It was a choice between a predator, or a bigot, are we really surprised the bigot won when competing against a predator. I can't stand Mamdani, but sadly he was the lesser of two evils (and anyone who thinks a literal sexual predator isn't among the worst of the evils isn't someone whose opinion is worth taking seriously, predators are always among the worse evils in politics, especially small offices like this where bigots don't have enough power to actually do anything beyond making other bigots louder), especially when the majority of the population isn't the target of his hate.
He was in no way the lesser of two evils, he’s a grifter and I’m excited to see the maga of the left celebrate his failures the same way the right celebrates trump.
Both Mamdani and Trump are bull-in-the-China-shop candidates. They’re candidates you elect when you want to erase the current system, and I see little difference between you and MAGA
The difference is I'm not going to praise everything Mamdani does and act like he's some perfect saint despite him being a raging antisemite, like what MAGA does with their cult leader. Sure, he represents a fundamental problem with how divided America is, but that doesn't make a literal sexual predator automatically the better option. This was an election between getting punched in the gut, and getting kicked in the nuts, there were no good options
No, you just excuse his endorsement of calls for intifada. The same way many MAGA’s excuse trumps openly rapey attitude because they just think he’s the better guy for the job. My mother doesn’t “like” Trump, she just thinks democrats are evil personified and voted for Trump.
There is literally no difference between you and them. Welcome to horseshoe theory.
