This is exactly what establishment Democrats and AIPAC were afraid of. Not Mamdani himself, as mayor of NYC, but a normalization of more progressive candidates.

I love it. Be prepared for the massive media campaign though. If we thought the smear against Mamdani was bad, if he wins the general it's going to be a frenzy.
