It's fairly insane that the central political issue in the New York mayoral race seems to be Israel / Palestine. I mean I know there is a bunch of local stuff too of the type you'd expect but that conflict just seems to have hung over the whole thing in the worst possible way. And it's not going to stop now; I can understand why the democratic party broadly, outside of NYC, is dreading the mailers that the GOP will be able to send out using his response to October 7th and the whole "globalize the intifada" business. That's just easy fundraising.
EDIT: To be clear in no way is this post an invitation to start an argument about the Israel / Palestine conflict itself, keep that crap in the other thread.

Stephen Colbert was grilling the guy over it. Our media and entertainment media are compromised.

Now we enter the the part where the centrists back Cuomo as an independent and split the vote and allow the Repub candidate or Eric Adams to sneak through.

One has to wonder why they picked a profoundly weak pos like Cuomo? he has more skeletons both in and out of his closet than Dracula and a huge FU to all women voters

Nobody has accused the Dems of being smart with their picks

I don't wonder at all why they'd back a sex pest centrist with name recognition over a progressive as that's as stereotypically Democratic Party as it gets. They're terrified of progressive policies that are supported by the voting public.
Because trump got away with criming he thinks other elected leaders should as well. Quite the post he put out today...amongst the other every day nuttery he spews
BREAKING NEWS…I was shocked to hear that the State of Israel, which has just had one of its Greatest Moments in History, and is strongly led by Bibi Netanyahu, is continuing its ridiculous Witch Hunt against their Great War Time Prime Minister! Bibi and I just went through HELL together, fighting a very tough and brilliant longtime enemy of Israel, Iran, and Bibi could not have been better, sharper, or stronger in his LOVE for the incredible Holy Land. Anybody else would have suffered losses, embarrassment, and chaos! Bibi Netanyahu was a WARRIOR, like perhaps no other Warrior in the History of Israel, and the result was something that nobody thought was possible, a complete elimination of potentially one of the biggest and most powerful Nuclear Weapons anywhere in the World, and it was going to happen, SOON! We were fighting, literally, for the Survival of Israel, and there is nobody in Israel’s History that fought harder or more competently than Bibi Netanyahu. Despite all of this, I just learned that Bibi has been summoned to Court on Monday for the continuation of this long running, (He has been going through this “Horror Show” since May of 2020 – Unheard of! This is the first time a sitting Israeli Prime Minister has ever been on trial.), politically motivated case, “concerning cigars, a Bugs Bunny doll, and numerous other unfair charges” in order to do him great harm. Such a WITCH HUNT, for a man who has given so much, is unthinkable to me. He deserves much better than this, and so does the State of Israel. Bibi Netanyahu’s trial should be CANCELLED, IMMEDIATELY, or a Pardon given to a Great Hero, who has done so much for the State. Perhaps there is no one that I know who could have worked in better harmony with the President of the United States, ME, than Bibi Netanyahu. It was the United States of America that saved Israel, and now it is going to be the United States of America that saves Bibi Netanyahu. THIS TRAVESTY OF “JUSTICE” CAN NOT BE ALLOWED!
Anyone remember the campaign the ID people in Jan 6? Might be time for an internet campaign to start naming these brown shirts in terrorist garbs doing the work of Herr Drumpf. I don't know any US law enforcement personally, but these collaborators should be warned that collaborators face consequences when the fever breaks.
Those worthless mutherf$%cers better pray the sons don't figure out who they are. I don't think the balaclavas will help then.
