Lunatic Fringe Benefits? Victor Davis Hanson Asks If Zohran Mamdani's Cons Are Actually Pros In NYC

Posted • July 11, 2025: Political commentator Victor Davis Hanson just came out and called the Democrat Party’s NYC mayoral nominee, Zohran Mamdani, exactly what he is. But does the truth about who he is help him or hurt him in his quest to be elected by the city’s voters? —— Victor Davis Hanson: Mamdani is a pampered, privileged, angry, young socialist-communist. The more that we hear about Mamdani being a lunatic and Anti-American — does that help him or hurt him, given the demographics of New York? —— I love VDH. He always gets to the heart of it.

He's put the party in a tough spot nationally. Too overt with the agenda. Now his supporters want to primary Jeffries. A major problem is that true New Yorkers with a long history in the city left years ago to be replaced by many with no ties to the city. The problem is real NYers have been replaced en masse the past 20 years with carpetbaggers. The sane native New Yorkers are driven out of NYC. Many fled to Florida. —— Despite being a radical, he’ll still get the votes he needs to be mayor. They’ve seen this movie before, and so have we. I remember well, that Obama's Marxist leanings were exposed....and hammered, day after day, by Hannity and Rush. Didn't do any good. The populace still voted for the shiny, new candidate. Mamdani will be your new mayor. (…)
