I think Mamdani is on par with Obama as far as political talent and charisma

[drray23]

It took me a while to realize that, but this man is incredible. I have another OP (https://www.democraticunderground.com/100220822612) where I posted about the meeting. He completely tamed Trump and got him to admit that he and even Bernie Sanders have the right ideas...

1. Recommended.

I was just talking to my sister about what a remarkable man he is.

5. Your thoughts on two things

His absolute stillness
and his wonderful FDR jab.

13. Mamdani did

an old trick -- make the felon believe he thought of your idea first. It isn't as simple as attempting to do this, for it takes talent to accomplish it as completely as Mamdani did. I used to use that to get psychotic people to go to the hospital: rather than me suggesting it, I got them to, then agreed with them. Think of how the hard-core maga are viewing the felon's kind and encouraging words about a socialist.

Now, of course, the felon is legendary for agreeing with the last person he spoke with. But it worked ...... including the FDR jab, which was icing on the cake.

15. Masterful.

I've only seen a very few as smooth as Mamdani.

2. I agree. Very smart and talented.

3. He's an extraordinarily skilled politician; he's likely go far.

He owned Trump today.

4. Without doubt

A+ for the FDR New Deal pitch and his absolute stillness.
Effin fearless. I have even more respect for him after this towering look down on a seated Slobb eTing every nasty word he ever said about the mayor. Howling with laughter 😀

7. The optics are incredible.

I'm dying. This is spectacular.

Donald Trump, father of MAGA, is kissing up to a Muslim socialist.

11. It was something to behold

😀😀

6. Not good enough for Schumer though

8. Obama is a loyal Democrat. I can't see Obama ever advocating "leave it blank" as a strategy.

9. Regardless what some here say about Mamdani,

his message would be received postive anywhere in this country!

12. Hilariously,

even in the White House.

I guess the installed new Stephen Miller traps.

16. That's a bit of an overstatement.

17. Hi some

[Sneederbunk]

10. Will wait to see how he does in office.

18. I will wait to see how he does. I trusted everyone that praised Adam's and Fetterman..

They have been awful for our party. I have only watched cable news a few times since election night in 2024 so I don’t know anything about Mamdani. Except that the party leaders were openly against him.
