Why in the world do you think Mamdani easily came in? The billionaires, GOP, Democrats, Staten Island, the merely wealthy, were all against him. Have you seen him interview people on the street, particularly Trump voters? I'd invite you to give the man a listen to.
Obvious to me why he won. He's got Bill Clinton's charisma. If Mamdani is talking to you, he's talking to you, you're the only person in the room. He's listening to your problems, not looking to inject one of his talking points. And for the problems people talk to him about, he has plain answers. Nothing "pie in the sky", or "if only we could", only answers that sound doable.
And why are both Democrats and Republicans scared of him if he's undercover establishment? If he's really such a danger they should let him fall on his face and make an example of him. What they are afraid of is that he'll make notable and positive changes.
