(Red State)—Well this was certainly unexpected. The leftist Washington Post dropped a devastating op-ed Friday by its editorial board that ripped into democratic socialist mayoral hopeful Zohran Mamdani and said that he would be “bad for New York.”
As we reported, the political novice won a shocking victory in Tuesday’s Democrat NYC mayoral primary, beating disgraced former Governor Andrew Cuomo and putting himself in prime position for the November general election.
Usually the liberal rag is little more than a mouthpiece for the DNC, so to see them go after a Democrat this hard is a stunner and reveals two things: 1) Mamdani and his extremist policies are truly a danger to the Big Apple, and 2), leftists are scared right now. As I wrote earlier Friday, Mamdani could turn out to be a “big, beautiful gift” to the GOP because we can and will pound away the narrative that this guy is the new face of the Democrat party.
Even for many libs, this permanently-grinning specter with his socialist utopia visions, grand tax schemes and antisemitism is a bridge too far.
The Post agrees, and they give the entire game away in their headline: Zohran Mamdani’s victory is bad for New York and the Democratic Party.
