Elections NYC mayoral race

[Andy Capp]

He’s not a Muslim. There’s no way he practices those tenants and genuinely believes in it. He just uses his ethnicity to say he’s a Muslim to get progressive points. I don’t know why progressives love Islam so much though. They really are the dumbest of the dumb.

He’s as much a Muslim as Trump is a Christian to put it into perspective. Honestly I’d vote for a practicing Muslim over a progressive any day of the week. At least muslims have principles and hold themselves to standards.

Tenets, fuckstick.

 

[Andy Capp]

These guys are either too stupid to understand that Muslims living in New York on 9/11 not only had to absorb the trauma of that attack but also the antipathy of white Americans, or they're too racist to care.

It's like every New Yorker was hurt by 9/11 EXCEPT the ones who were Muslim, even if they were born and had lived their entire lives there.

It's disappointing that attacks this ignorant and racist are still so popular in 2025.

Disappointing but not at all surprising (to me).

And there are studies that show the opposite.

Such as?

If we want more laborers we can setup permit programs and have qualified people apply. Its not like allowing tens of millions of unvetted illegals to just pour into the country is the only way.

Many of those migrants were paroled into the country and were following the law. They were made illegal by Trump canceling those programs.

Bro who is this appealing to? NYC is very diverse and he insulted just about everyone in this video. It's pretty much every stereotype imaginable except I didn't see any Asians in the video so I guess they got off lucky this time lol. But for real, this just proves how weak his campaign is that he has to resort to AI because you know maybe he actually has no real support that he could have used in this video instead.

The fact that Cuomo thought a lazy AI ad that plays right into the criticism of him being prejudiced is what he needed right now should tell you how badly suited his political instincts are for the current moment.

Sure I wondering how much federal funding they will lose. Also I dont want the federal government bailing NYC out whe he fucks it up.

Yes I will get satisfaction when business close and rich leave because of his policies.

Now that part is also confusing because, as mentioned earlier, NYC has a gargantuan economy. An assload of tax money goes into federal bank account from there.
But at least you're being honest about gloating over businesses closing. Although an honest jerk is still a jerk.

If you keep touching the hot stove and getting burnt don't be surprised if people laugh at you.

I'm really looking forward to seeing Mamdani lower people's rents, and watching rightists cope and seethe over how that's actually a bad thing somehow.

Why do you want America to fail? Literally why are you trying to punch the air about states failing? Have a gander at how much California pays in tax compared to those hillbilly retard red states. We literally bail them out. Look into it. I know you bury your head in the sand when it comes to stats, but look into it.

I assume you're referring to that period when Biden's handlers flew in a bunch of economic migrants posing as asylum seekers in the middle of the night because they were desperate to get illegal border crossings down. Thats a far cry work permits. Most of those people went straight on welfare and I have zero faith anything Biden did with regards to immigration was for the betterment of the country.

You’re proud of the tax rate in California?

I was talking about NYC not the US in general.

If NYC starts to fail because of who they elected the federal government should not be forced to bail them out. If its was a natural disaster or something like that then yes the feds should go to their aid.

Now if Newscum wants to send them money from California's budget then he is welcome to but they are almost 500 billion in the red.

What does that have to do with us bailing out retard states?

So wait, why would you be eating the proverbial popcorn to job losses

when you warn them after 500 tries and they still wanna experiment because "it'll definitively work this time!" you can't help but laugh

NY...

same with canada. they voted for communists a 4th time after 3 straight disasters and now they're projected to be the worst g7 economy over the next 35 years!

OECD predicts Canada will be the worst performing advanced economy over the next decade…and the three decades after that — Business Council of British Columbia

Ottawa’s economic growth strategy rests on four shaky pillars: accommodative monetary policy to support interest-sensitive sectors of the economy like credit, housing investment, and durable goods consumption; expansive fiscal policy guided by short-term "guardrails" and lacking a long

Mamdani is going to make NYC so much worse and damage the Democratic severely

It's guaranteed, not because of his policies, but because the NYPD cannot stand him. They are going to make sure that crime will skyrocket in the city to make Mamdani look even worse. It will be catastrophic for him and for his party.

The hot stove, again, being federal dollars that you want withdrawn so that jobs are lost

 

[ShadowRun]

lol accurate

 

[Barney Gumble]

When the shoe is on the other foot and we get a Democrat POTUS, would you be comfortable with them withholding funds if a GOP city elected a candidate they don't like?

if a city elects a white nationalist i'd be all for a democrat potus crippling their funding.

What on earth are you talking about here? Can you link a reputable news source covering that story?
