Never heard of this Mamdani, but if trump hates them, pretty good chance they're on the right side of history.
The answer has always been to lean into it, not fight it.
It's like jumping off a bridge cuz someone called you a nerd, even tho the bridge isn't over water.
Can't take the bait.
For sure. If Trump's raving about you, you must be doing something right.
You probably mean raging. If he's raving about you it's not a good sign.
Republicans and Democrats are scared shitless of this guy. And all he is, is a primary winner for mayor.
If it's that easy, I say go fucking go Mamdani!
Despite all the headlines, I really hope Mamdani’s team has a damn good plan, because they’re going to be attacked pretty hard from all sides in the general. I wish they guy success, but the establishment’s going to fight him tooth and nail.
Yeah, it's going to be crazy. The scariest part is that most people communicate using platforms that (being generous) will not benefit from his policies.
I'm still optimistic they can get people hyped up for the class war.
Ton of dumb people still believe in the communist is evil propaganda . It's so insane
I mean he's older than the USSR and he's German.
Trump is older than the USSR? Wouldn't that make him like 103?
USSR was... 1922 to 1991? So 69 years old. Trump is older than the Soviet union.
Ah, he's been alive longer than the USSR lasted, not that he's been alive since before it was founded.
Thats true, but I'm positive he meant that as in older than its age from birth to death. Not in the. "I can say the baby is older because it was born in 1699 and died at 1 month old." sense.
That is the most impressive endorsement for this dude, he must be legit
If Trump doesn't like him, you know he is a good guy.
The people at the top are afraid of democracy.
Socialism is much different than communism. He should pick one.
Half of people on lemmy don't know the difference, expecting it of trump is straight up delusional.
When every democratic politician left of Pat Buchanan for the last 30 years has been called a RADICAL SOCIALIST LUNATIC, not sure what impact “no, but really this time!” is expected to have.
Sounds like a great ad for Mamdani!
Good luck to America on this grueling quest to become a democratic nation. I'm rooting for you, but I am not too hopeful.
So once again, trump and centrists agree.
Of course they do. They serve the same masters. https://kbin.earth/m/[email protected]/t/1543142/New-2028-Democratic-front-runner-surges-ahead-of-Kamala-Harris-poll#comments
Ahh booooooo scaredy pants trump. Why is he so insecure?
I find it really annoying how Communist and Socialist are two words used interchangeably by these people.
They're two very different ideas.
I was at the grocery the day after he won the primary, and I saw the New York Post stack of newspapers, with a sensationalized headline about him. I nearly bought all the copies to throw in the trash-
Definitely don’t buy them.
Flip the entire stack upside down and walk away.
He looks TERRIBLE
You know this is what trump is most angry about.
Edit: he knows Ivanka will give him her Justin Trudeau look
It's crazy to me how much time can pass and they still use the ancient name calling—AND people still react to it. Insane
Takes one to know one.
Trump lacks the brains or cognition to be a lunatic.
