House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries and socialist mayoral hopeful Zohran Mamdani finally sat down Friday for the first time since New York City’s primary — but the Democratic nominee left without an endorsement.
In a lukewarm statement, Jeffries called the pair’s hourlong meeting in his Brooklyn stomping grounds “constructive,” but did not indicate whether he would throw his weight behind the lefty candidate.
“We don’t really know each other well,” he has said. Jeffries has said Mamdani needs to “clarify” his stance on “Globalizing the Intifada” — a controversial phrase in the Israel-Gaza conflict.
For the best. Let’s make it clear what we want every primary and do what the Tea Party did to the GOP.
Turn it into a shit show that now controls the US with fascists? Tea Party is the predecessor of the MAGGAT party.
Yes, well, not literally into the tea party, lol. Just, if they can pull the centrist Republicans right through primaries, I don’t see how we can’t pull centrist Democrats left.
Ooof
