    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
