Zohran Mamdani is going to take the New York City mayoralty tomorrow. He will do so by being a TikTok star- a social media celebrity. He is going to take the crown without the endorsements of a lot of New York politicians, including:
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY)
Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY)
New York State Democratic Party Chair Jay Jacobs
Queens Democratic Party (led by Rep. Gregory Meeks)
Rep. Laura Gillen (D-NY)
Rep. Tom Suozzi (D-NY)
Rep. Dan Goldman (D-NY)
But to many, he will appear to have a gotten an implicit endorsement from Barack Obama.
Obama put in a call to Mamdani. The publicly stated purpose was encouragement, praise, and an offer of post-election mentorship. It was seen by democrats as a sign of support. And it was, in a backhanded kind of way. He told Mamdani “Your campaign has been impressive to watch.” He also offered himself as a “sounding board.”
Obama wants to exert some level of control of Mamdani and use Mamdani as a proxy in Obama’s continued war against the US. On November 4, 2008, Barack Obama literally told the world:
“Join me in five days as we transform the country.”
Mamdani is the current embodiment of that movement- one of transforming the US into a totally socialist state. Obama sees himself in Mamdani yet Obama stopped short of endorsing Mamdani, claiming he doesn’t endorse local races:
Mamdani campaign adviser Patrick Gaspard, who served as director of White House Office of Political Affairs and US Ambassador to South Africa under Obama, futilely tried to downplay the former president’s lack of endorsement as one of the race’s latest polls showed Mamdani foe Andrew Cuomo closing in. “President Obama doesn’t endorse in local races. That’s a longstanding rule post-presidency,” Gaspard claimed to The Post. “He endorses in general election races for federal office and governors. His call to Zohran is a huge boost at a critical moment and a signal to New Yorkers.”
Which is a lie, of course.
In fact, the 44th president has endorsed numerous candidates for mayor over the years, including the unpopular de Blasio. Other mayoral candidates endorsed by Obama also included beleaguered Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass, as well as her predecessor Eric Garcetti, and former Chicago Mayor Rahm Emmanuel, who later served as Obama’s White House Chief of Staff. The former prez has even waded into mayoral contests in smaller cities, endorsing Rick Kriseman for mayor of St. Petersburg, Fla., and Caroline Simmons for mayor of Stamford, Conn.
Barack Obama is not a fool. He is keeping his distance from Mamdani because he knows, as I have said here repeatedly, Mamdani cannot make good on his promises, and they are numerous:
- Freeze rent for 1 million rent-stabilized apartments
- Free citywide buses
- Universal free childcare (6 weeks to 5 years)
- 200,000 new affordable homes (union-built, rent-stabilized)
- City-owned grocery stores in every borough
- $30/hr NYC minimum wage by 2030
- Free CUNY for all New Yorkers
- $9 billion in new taxes on millionaires, corporations, and luxury condos
- Green New Deal for schools and public housing
- Stronger sanctuary for immigrants and LGBTQ+ New Yorkers
Mamdani can do none of these things alone. HIs chances of getting them all done is zero.
This is why Obama won’t endorse Mamdani. He will not have his name attached to the coming failure, but he won’t stop trying to ruin the country. He will be pleased to see a Muslim as the titular head of NYC.
On that you can bet the farm.
DrJohn has been a health care professional for more than 40 years. In addition to clinical practice he has done extensive research and has published widely with over 70 original articles and abstracts in the peer-reviewed literature. DrJohn is well known in his field and has lectured on every continent except for Antarctica. He has been married to the same wonderful lady for over 45 years and has three kids- two sons, both of whom are attorneys and one daughter who is in the field of education.
DrJohn was brought up with the concept that one can do well if one is prepared to work hard but nothing in life is guaranteed.
Except for liberals being foolish.
Zorhan is in the closet?
Obama and Mamdani who is the lesser of two evils?
Yes.
Obama is basically gutless. He IS a socialist, just like Mamdanii (JUST like Mamdanii, a Muslim socialist), but he is too gutless to come out of THAT closet. Just like he avoided fully implementing Obamacare because the pain would hurt Democrat elections, he knows the stigma of socialism and communism among the vast majority of Americans. But, socialism is taking over the Democrats because they have so many followers that are stupid enough to believe in the Free Shit Fairy.
Obamacare was the best he could get at the time, and even that required a heavy hand of legislative date rape to shove it through. As it’s built, it’s designed to collapse, with the hope that Americans become dependent enough to embrace Single Payer
The day that Barack HUSSEIN Obama is lowered into his Traitor’s Grave will be a GREAT DAY for the United States of America.
