Gee, why might they have done that?
Across 23 angry minutes laced with identity politics and seething with resentment,” the editorial says, Mamdani made clear that he wants to identify “class enemies” — like landlords, and “bosses” who exploit workers — and set about “crushing them.”
His goal, it notes, isn’t to increase wealth, but to redistribute it to his supporters. He didn’t mention “growth” once.
Even Democratic talking heads Van Jones and David Axelrod criticized Mamdani’s “character switch” and his divisive speech.
What a surprise. Who knew Mamdani would turn out to be such an almost Hugo Chavez-like figure?
Well, anyone paying attention, actually.
Certainly more people would have known had the Washington Post covered his “long history of divisive and demagogic statements.”
Ah, but that would've caused problems for the Democrats, so there's your answer.
