WTH: Will New York Elect a Communist Mayor? Seth Mandel Explains.

Last month, New York City took to the polls for their mayoral
primary and the Democratic party has decided that a socialist,
communist, terrorist supporting, antisemite, is the best
candidate for mayor of New York City. Zohran Mamdani is a radical
left "intersectionality salad". Between his unironic quotation of
Marx to raps about the Holy Land Five, we're left wondering what
New Yorkers are thinking and how Mamdani came to these "beliefs".
Is this really the path out of the wilderness for the Democratic
party?


Seth Mandel is the Senior editor of Commentary Magazine who

Examiner print edition between 2018 and 2023, and worked
previously as an op-ed editor at the New York Post.
