Sure, downvoter, you've expressed your displeasure with the sausage factory workings of democracy.

 

Doesn't change the fact that the socialist got so many, bigly many in fact, more of these:

 

Have another one.

Trump is complaining but he represents the radical right in the US, so you can make an argument that both he and Mandami represent the extremist elements within their own parties. 

 

Having said that I think that Mandami also represents a breath of fresh air, and a rejection of the status quo, which is super corrupt and represents people who are completely sold out to corporate interests, just like Trump. 

 

I think in general Trump hates Muslims, and Trump hates people with dark skin, so the goons hatred toward this guy is to be expected.

Still, many people are uneducated and don't know the difference between social democrat and communist.

They call Mr Sanders  a commie! Quite funny to a European

Like they say, if you want to wreck something just give it to the left.

China hasn't been communist since Deng Xiaoping . You can own your own house you can own a  business.

Hey Donny, your idol/hero Adolf Hitler also hated/exterminated communists, and look what happened to him.

 

Time to visit the White House bunker?

He got voted in. People knew his policies, his election pledges. Someone attacking him is attacking the people who elected him...

 

Ooh, shoe and other foot... The electorate is stupid, they elected Trump, now they elected Mamdani... Ah no, don't call the electorate stupid by attacking the guy they voted for.

He reneged on most of the election pledges and indifference to the people problems. The Tuesday blue wave was the electorate respond to his unfulfilled election pledges.

He has clearly stated he is a Democratic Socialist. Same political party name can be found in European countries. So, trump is just trying to use the big bugaboo. Shades of Sen. Joe McCarthy (R-Wis) of an earlier period.

Roy choen senator McCarthys lawyer was trump’s mentor in his youth (abominable) and now in Donald’s dotage Stephen miller is his muse…….what could possibly go wrong???god help us all!!! Anyway good luck NY and hope it’s a success!!

I think the person most upset, if not now she soon will be, is AOC. She is the biggest loser in this Mamdani victory. He has eclipsed her in her state and in her city. He can't be president--under the current Constitution. But he wants to do away with that anyway. AOC was sitting herself up for a standard lifetime job as a Democratic pol. Her track was as  a would-be Nancy Pelosi. Mamdani has derailed all that.

Obviously has no knowledge of democracy. Like so many of the Trump minions. Some of you really ought to start thinking about moving to Putin Land, every thing you desire is already in place. 

 

Though we share a common affection for Marin County .......i just wanted it known (as maybe you do already)  that my thoughts on US politics ,  and probably covid ,   will mostly not align with yours.

That said... though i voice an opinion once or twice,  generally i stay away from those subjects on public forums .      

Everyone has the right to post what they want .    Makes life interesting.   I just don't get involved with those wishing to do internet combat .   Though that does seem to be the highlight of the day for so many .

cheers, rumak
