2 No need to kvetch about Zohran. He'll soon fail. What he offers is nothing new and has never worked.

3 NYC has total liabilities of about $130 billion as of the end of 2024.

Which is about 3x times more than cities like Chicago and LA.

Which are also Liberal, Socialist-Democrap manure holes.

4 56,000 per taxpayer. Impressive.
In Munich it's 4,500 (and that's perceived as far too high)

8  What he offers is nothing new

As badanov points out, what Hizzoner offers is entrée to hardened jihadis into New York City’s security strongholds, and to the communists full access to the bank accounts. The City’s six million Jews is the merest sprinkle on the frosting of that cake. Not that there would be anything so crass as round-ups, mind you. He merely won’t protect any not of his preferred classes from the predators.

That he cannot provide any of the free stuff fools thought they were voting for is incidental.

IMO, his inability to deliver will be explained as a sabotage - by you know who.

12 @tw
That sounds a bit more troubling. Maybe a good idea to check his naturalization papers VERY carefully.

One million I'd say.

14 No need to kvetch about Zohran. He'll soon fail. What he offers is nothing new and has never worked.

Oh, it works. It turns formerly prosperous cities into third world hell holes. It turns middle class neighborhoods into slums. It turns the sons and daughters of middle class families into transgenders, junkies and hobos. Isn't that what they want? Aren't those the preconditions for a totalitarian communist takeover?

22 About one third of NYC's Jews voted for Mamdani.

Historically around three fourths of American-Jewish voters pull the lever for the Democrat. This is a strong repudiation of Mamdani. However, young voters, college-educated, and voters who moved to the city within the past four years — overlapping sets, to be sure — flipped that ratio, from all that I’ve seen; there is also the margin of cheating in city with a strong party machine to generate fraud.

It will be interesting to see what the ratios are after 1) the Trump Justice Department forces a clean-up of the voter rolls and the requirement for a photo ID in order to vote, and 2) what the city’s population looks like after the Trump administration and Congress both have refused to shore up NYC finances.
