It feels like only yesterday when Trump was calling Mamdani a communist threat who was going to destroy New York.

Perhaps Trump sees it as a compliment? He's vowed to disassemble antifa, which is anti-fascist, and clearly his enemy. So he can really only view it as a flattering.

Speaking of crazy people, Laura Loomer is having a meltdown (which is actually something she does every single day) over trump being a big Mamdani fan.

I still can’t understand why the mayor of New York is expected to visit Israel upon winning an election. Why the hell were they all asked that?

Jewish population by city proper

New York City is home to the largest Jewish community in any city proper in the world. In 2011, according to the UJA-Federation of New York, the five boroughs of New York City proper was home to 1,086,000 Jews, representing 13% of the city's population.[4] In 2023, 960,000 Jews live in the city, nearly half of them live in Brooklyn.[5][3][2]

Because Jewish lobbies are incredibly powerful in US politics, and it's virtually impossible to get elected to any higher office without their support. So if Mamdani has any aspirations beyond being mayor, he has to bend the knee

So how is that at all related to the measly 13% population stat you posted?

That’s ####ed, completely ####ed, and deserves more attention. Especially while they’re racking up war crimes like dominos reward points. Israel having pull in the US is completely ####ed.
