House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (NY-8), upon whom you could write volumes regarding things he’s unaware of, seems keenly in tune, at least, with the fact that the election of a full-blown democratic socialist as mayor of New York City is a messaging gold mine for Republicans.
The GOP already knows this. President Trump is well aware.
But the Democrat leader in the House is already laying down hints that he sees trouble on the horizon himself. Hence, the display we saw on Wednesday evening, where Temu Obama, as he is known, couldn’t have weaseled his way out of a question about Zohran Mamdani being the future of the Democratic Party fast enough.
“You had record turnout in New York City for this election. Would you say that Mamdani is the future of the Democratic Party?” a reporter asked as Jeffries and a host of party leaders held a press conference.
