    Thankfully after next week Cuomo will go away forever.

    Or go full mask off MAGA.

    One or the other.

    Kinda seems like the guy who lost the primary and decided to run anyway is the divisive one.

    Zohran’s campaign has attracted support from far beyond New York, and even far beyond the USA. It’s a campaign with a message of hope and positivity. He’s anything but divisive.

    Cuomo’s just a piece of shit.

      You don’t understand, he’s being hopeful and positive while being Muslim, and the last “national moment of unity” this fucking scumbag is willing to recognize as such is when “all” of “us” came together after 9/11 to be super shitty to anyone who looked like they were from the middle east. Taking away their easy scapegoat really does feel divisive to these psychotic ghouls.

      Geography doesn’t even come into play…

      Mamdani grew up in NYC as the child of immigrants.

      Cuomo is from a wealthy political dynasty, and he was born with a silver spoon and raised among high society.

      Cuomo’s been segregated from common New Yorkers his entire life, he doesn’t know what an average person’s life is like. We don’t need Nepo babies in the people’s party.

      We need average citizens like Mamdani, who actually experienced what life was like for the common voters. That’s literally what representative government is.

          Mero did an interview with Mamdani the other day and they talked about how Mero went to the normal public school that was rough, and Mamdani went to the school for gifted students right next door…

          The original title when I saw it was like:

          Mero probably robbed Zohran in school

          Like, he went to the “smart kid school”, but he was also walking the same streets and doing the same shit as every other New Yorker his age.

          Cumo has more in common with trump than the average voter

    Don’t polls show Mamdani with a substantial lead over Cuomo? Does he even talk to New Yorkers or wonder why polls from multiple sources show that he’s way behind Mamdani? Sounds like he doesn’t understand New Yorkers.

    I’m in Chicago though, so what do I know?

      Yeah, his campaign is sowing division between the wealthy that control everything and the everyone else sick of being controlled

    “divisive” is such a stupid attack. It has no substance. Sometimes people are divided for good reasons!
