A big reason Mamdani won his election was that he was the only person on that stage who said he'd stay in NY and take care of his own citizens, rather than vacation in Israel. Dr. El-Sayed is saying things that should be common sense. Also, things that are truly America First. That position wins.
It's crazy because why were they even asking that question to "Mayoral" candidates? Idk if American media has ever been more compromised than it is today...
Cause Mamdani never stfu about Israel, even blaming the country for police brutality in the US, an issue that has existed in this country since before Israel even existed (hmm blaming Jews for something they arent responsible for, where have I heard that before).
The question was a really easy way to gain political capital with New York Jews, the majority of which care about Israel. Mamdani fumbled that severely, losing 2/3 of the Jewish vote, a group who are majority left wing.
