Failed? It's been less than a week. They're threatening to denaturalize and deport him. Sounds like they're very frightened.

Remember when trump invited the taliban to camp david...
Bruh, no, I didn't remember until you posted this. Holy shit. It's been a longass 10 years.
Media: "Everyone, this guy doesn't grovel for Israel!"
Everyone: "okay that sounds good."
Not sure if this was a smear campaign as much as the lobby getting high on it's own supply.
It would be nice if the media made it easy for us and just kept reminding who is funded by AIAPAC.
Am Jewish, am native New Yorker, no longer live there, would vote Mamdani. Fuck Israel.
There's no smear they could've done that's worse than what Cuomo had going on.
I live nowhere near New York but have heard his name lots. What’s the deal with Cuomo?
Typical political scumbaggery, ethics issues, sexual harassment allegations, etc
I kinda figured just by looking at the guy.
Thanks
Oh, they're still trying.
But they just keep making him more cool.
A.) If this is a right-wing smear, it's their typical laziness. Can't be bothered to implement https? Even if it's a redirect it's sloppy.
B.) Look at this registrar info from their who is:
Nevermind about the whois...the info is all from the privacy provider the registrar uses.
Love the style of his website, great design
Damn website won't load
Prolly a good sign!
It just goes to his campaign page. But yes, a good sign.
Seriously. It's not "failed"; it's in full fuckin' swing.
But Cuomo tried very hard to turn it into a referendum on Mamdani’s views on Israel and Palestine—and the media establishment took the bait.
It's weird this is an issue in a mayoral campaign in the USA. The role has no foreign policy authority whatsoever, and Palestine/Israel is 5700 miles from NYC.
Plus, Israel is super unpopular right now. Mainstream media and establishment politicians don't get this. The more they criticize Mamdani for his lack of allegiance to Israel, the more people will vote for him!
MSM used to know that they needed to smear anti-Israel candidates on other subjects. They got high on their own supply. Probably because they fired all the non zealots.
Yeah the most bizarre thing to me was seeing the debate and hearing a question about foreign nation visits
Like wtf is a city mayor doing visiting other countries and why would we care
That was super weird. It was trying to bait out mamdani and other progressive views about Israel but man what a word question for a mayoral race
He’s about to raise taxes on ~350k millionaires, while increasing wages and lowering the cost of groceries and rent. It’s everything Trump promised in his campaign, but he’s doing it the exact opposite way.
When it works, Trump is gonna look like a dick, and the nation will see that democratic socialism will get them what they were promised.
Yeah but he's doing it for those NYC liberal elites, so improving their way of life is a bad thing you see.
So, he's planning to decrease the value of Trumps places... Dangerous moves... I still wait for the first US politicians and judges that work against the Forth Reich to causually fall from windows.
Trump is already deeply unpopular in NYC, so it’s not likely to change anything on the national stage. New Yorkers have been seeing Trump’s BS on parade for decades now. It won’t change New York’s opinion of Trump.
Nationally, it might. But that’s only if the media actually runs with it; The big news orgs are all in bed with the established politicians, so they’ll likely be smearing him left and right to avoid having it turn into a national shift.
the nation will see that democratic socialism will get them what they were promised.
What's that old saying like "none are so blind as those who will not see"? I feel like people are so emotionally invested in "socialism bad, democrats bad" that it's going to be hard for them to accept contradicting that.
Yes. We are talking about dumbasses that like the ACA, but hate "Obamacare" - which apparently has "death panels"....
The insurance companies are the death panels.

It won’t work because, like every socialist system everywhere, capitalists will seek to undermine and interfere.

There's a huge Jewish population in NYC, and many mistakenly assume that all of them support what Israel is doing. To a lot of people Judaism=Zionism.
That's a weird assumption. Many Jews strongly oppose it, including Bernie Sanders, Jon Stewart, Ben and Jerry from the ice cream, and probably millions of less famous Jews.

The smear campaign against Zohran Mamdani isn't over, and won't be over for as long as he's in politics, and then a little after.
They’ll attack him in the history books. The banks put Andrew Jackson on the $20 bill.
Definitely not over. Assuming he wins the election, I would anticipate a lot of sabotage stemming from establishment politicians and public servants. If they can't win this election, they'll want to make his term as mayor as discordant and ineffectual as possible, to make it easier for a more conservative/establishment candidate to win the next one.

Doesn't he still have to win the general? So we'll see if it failed or not.
In New York, the Dem primary is MUCH more competitive than the general against (perennial loser and hyper-racist vigilante) Curtis Sliwa and whichever dross failed to achieve the backing of one of the parties but are still rich and/or corrupt enough to afford running anyway.
Other than Sliwa, his opponents will be a corrupt as fuck compulsive liar who was probably days from being sentenced to prison when he decided to pledge his allegiance to the Mango Mussolini without joining the GOP, and possibly the sex offender he just beat.
Are we expecting the Democratic party to actually support him? Seems the national leadership would rather see someone else in his spot.
I for one am DEFINITELY not, no.
Will be interesting to see what they do tbh, since Cuomo has already lost to him once and the other two candidates are openly sucking up to the Mango Mussolini. Makes endorsing anyone quite the tricky proposition..
