Yeah, at this point it's honestly a better deal for whoever endorses Mamdani than it is for Mamdani.
Yep, just tagging along on his popularity but whatever (legally) gets him the win, I'm okay with that. She's going to be up for reelection in 2026 and wants to be able to use that point to sell herself to progressives and leftists.
She also desperately wants Mandami to win the Mayoral election because if he is unemployed in 2026 he might go after her job
If a no-name State Senator from Astoria loses a mayoral race to Cuomo, he's not going to turn around and ride a wave to the governor's mansion. But if this rising star lands in Gracie Mansion and has to go around cleaning up all Eric Adams's shit, there's a good chance he gets some of it on him and Hochul can use that to occupy his time for the next four years.
I'm thrilled to see a real progressive headed for the biggest mayorship in the country. But I don't see it as anything less than a poisoned chalice. The NYPD are not going to be kind to Zohran. The business wing of the party is going to put the screws to him every chance they get. The city bureaucracy will be a minefield. The press will be at this throat on day one.
And that's before Trump announced he wants to carpet bomb Hell's Kitchen just to prove a mayor can't fight back.
I'm totally fine with her tagging along with him. It's better than what Schumer and Jeffries are doing: undermining their own party and siding with Trump against the people.
Not only that she cannot be framed as going against the will of her party electorate which is HUGE for her.
Well yeah, provided a "donor" or two doesn't cut them off for it.
True. They might lose that sweet sweet AIPAC money.
