About NYC mayoral candidate Mamdani being vilified, esp. by

TSF — i get vibes of reverse psychology.

Specifically, he WANTS Mamdani to be elected in order to declare another municipal “emergency” and attempt to federalize New York City.

He doesn’t care about Mamdani. He’s just a convenient excuse.

He’s been manufacturing a “rising” crime issue in the biggest cities like NYC, Chicago, LA etc for many years. His cult believes it and that’s all that matters
