• Socialist Dems

    From Aaron Thomas@1:342/201 to All on Mon Aug 31 21:59:44 2026
    I was listening to a "conservative" podcaster earlier tonight who was suggesting that "NY Governor Hochul could impeach NYC Mayor Mamdani for breaking the law, which he did when he opened a socialist grocery store."

    I don't know how true any of those statements are true, but let's assume they are and here's my hypothesis: If Hochul becomes "the governor who impeached the Socialist mayor, in defense of democracy," then that could help her re-election effort.

    This wouldn't override Ron's suggestion that there really is a "DSA" chapter of Democrats trying to take over the party, but it could be a symptom of the "Soros Democrats" fighting back; throw a DSA Dem under the bus, and save her seat as the governor of NY? Hell yea, she'd do that, and George would support her all the way.

    then that could help her re-election effort.

    But too many people wouldn't see it that way.

    1. The communists would be outraged - and they ARE a signiticant force in the Democrat party now due to the Soros Dems' policies.
    2. The rest of us would see it as "The governor who is fighting the Socialists in her own party to decide to gets to be in charge." and you know that the Communists would elect another Mamdani right after that anyway.

    The Left always eats itself at some point.

    For me, I'll just watch the show and eat my popcorn. The Communism is on display for all to see.

    In a normal town they wouldn't, but NYC residents wouldn't know a good leader if they seen one.

    Yea, I don't expect a fair mayoral election to ever occur in NYC, but my point is that they can afford to do some shuffling if that's what it takes to keep Hochul as governor.

    NYC's GOP candidate has Curtis Sliwa in 2021, 2025, and he said he will run again in 2029. IOW: The left has nothing to lose in NYC. It's Albany that they're worried about.
