This is the obvious course for a party that isn’t yet totally brain-dead. They will reach out to Mamdani, and try a million different ways of reigning him in.
And the truth is that everyone has a price.
It may not be cold hard money, but it’s impossible to climb the political ladder without at some point making deals with the devils.
Just how much of his soul is left is the big question, because something needs to change…
It is not a truth. What’s true is that weak people pretend to be strong to win. Identifying genuine believers will avoid co-opting of the platform.
Weak willed liars fold at a price because they were always in it for the money. Some people want change will be damned if they are obstructed. The way Mamdani talks about our problems and then correctly lays out a systemic solution has sold me on him being genuine. He’s an incredible person who is poised to change the American political landscape.
Partially true. Mamdani could still compromise to get things done. It depends where he draws his line for compromise. For example he said he will discourage the term “globalize the intifada” but he never used it to begin with.
I qualified my statement about being bought fairly well, suggesting it could happen piece by piece through political deals.
Your replies have been “nuh uh”, and then bumping your head into the mother of all non sequitur. I guess that’s something to take from this conversation.
The price of denying policies Zohran supports is more costly in the long run, and everyone knows that. It’s just some people look at the futures and desire the barbaric one.

Politics is compromise. To suggest otherwise is to ask for something other than fair political representation.
No, not everyone does have a price. The weak and unprincipled have a price.
You’re either extremely naive, or never considered an ethical dilemma in your blessed life.
I have. It seems you, too, have, and are unsatisfied with your choice. Next time make a better one.

AOC said they’re doing the same shit to her. Fortunately she sees right through it as I’m sure Mamdani will/does
