If the billionaires are afraid, he must be good.
I've been very loosely watching this race from here in Central Cali. Great job, guys! Here's hoping Cuomo fucks off and goes and finds himself a job being a scarecrow.
I’m confused. Which “libs” is which
The account claims to make fun of the liberals on TikTok. But it loves the liberals in government apparently.
If right wing MAGAt morons don't like someone, you know that is the person you should be voting for...
It is not only the right. As Abraham Aiyash says;
Democrats who ripped apart Trump’s character for his conduct with women, etc, then proceed to endorse serial sexual harasser @andrewcuomo for mayor because they’re afraid of progressives like @ZohranKMamdani is exactly why people don’t trust or respect the Democratic Party.
I got a note from Adam Schiff's office yesterday inviting "representatives of grassroots organizations" to a zoom call.
When asked what we could do, he said "find a local group working on issues you care about".
Motherfucker, you invited us here because we are in grassroots organizations!
Democrats are completely fucking useless corporate drones.
For his next trick, he told UAW members to join a union and AOC to run for Congress.
Aka: the right (center-right if you want to be extremely charitable)
If Libs of Tik Tok is saying it, then you know to be on the other side.
Well it is a russian funded account so.
That was my thought "oh I don't know.... I'm not a new Yorker and have only vague indirect knowledge of Cuomo being shitty.... Glances at name
"....I fully support Mowhatever."
Also I was today years old when I learned New York Mayors are part of a party? What's that about?
Your local school board candidates are affiliated with a political party
Those random elections for some hospital position or something to do with a college have candidates affiliated with political parties.
The two party system is just a stupid way for people to show up, vote for a team, and go home. Its wild
No they are not, not officially anyways. There is plenty of crossover, where someone who is officially part of a federal or provincial party will run for mayor, but those parties aren't involved and they have to step down from those roles to run.
I just didn't know America's 2 party system went all the way down to municipal. That's fuxked.
I think they are referring to that there are primaries for mayor. In my town people just run for mayor, like there is only one election and then maybe a runoff. You know what party they represent but they are technically not allowed to run on a party ticket. The end result of this is that in the most recent election, in a red state and red county, the runoff was between a liberal and a centrist and the liberal won.
It's new york. It's a city so prestigious that being the former governor of the right party doesn't guarantee you'll win. Partyless elections are usually for low prestige roles
If Mamdani wins, I look forward to discovering why he's actually a fucking nightmare person.
Never fails in NYC.
He supports BDS. You won't find Grifters doing that.
Big Dick Sally? Hawt.
This seems a bit like the chicago mayoral race awhile back. Johnson was to dangerously progressive. Whelp now the city council is trying to ram through a law to allow the head of the police to call a curfew with 30 mins notice. WTF! You should see how they rail because johnson said its stupid and will veto it.
Right wingers look at politicians as examples of how they should behave.
If a politician who represents them is a good person, then they would be held to the same standard of behavior.
This is why they like scummy leaders.
Then they’re off the hook.
As long as someone in charge is objectively a bigger piece of shit than them, then they must not be so bad, right?
Whereas the rest of us want the best of us to lead us.
They literally want bad leaders as an excuse for their own shittiness.
You know who I trust for voting advice? A racist twitter account. /s
The people that rallies behind the "grab her by the pussy" guy are favoring a sex pest???? I'm so shocked and awed
Republicans: His name sounds foreign, stop him!
Cuomo sucks and should have stayed resigned-in-disgrace.
When you're backed by AIPAC, you don't have to ever give up.
Chaya Raichik will lose property value in NY if Mamdani implements his campaign promises. This is why she’s really afraid of him.
Like how we would be eating brunch if Kamala was elected? I say do whatever the opposite the republican says and you will never be wrong.
If you want the right to support you, have a criminal record
Elliot Spitzer to interview several prostitutes on a helicopter later to give us some updates on the poll numbers.
From Upstate it's looking bleak for you twats.
Wait until Weiner slides back into office.
