    Mamdani: 12-pt landslide victory

    Bloomberg: “Hey guys, you might want to back off this one, he seems a bit risky”

    Bloomberg: “Remember that time I pissed away a billion dollars to place fourth behind Liz Warren?”

      Either Mamdani is seen as ineffective, and just another Democrat who promised utopia but was unable to actually deliver on his lofty promises. Or, more dangerously, New Yorkers get a firsthand lesson on the dangers of socialism, sparking a considerable backlash against the Democratic Party as a whole.

      Slop indeed. Because it worked so we’ll for Bloomberg!

        I knew a couple of people who pulled some sweet do-nothing jobs on the campaign down in Texas. Nice work in the middle of the COVID dip. One was even a DSA Bernie Bro who just campaigned for Sanders while taking Bloomberg’s money.
