The New York Young Republican Club (NYYRC) has called on the federal government to strip Zohran Mamdani of his citizenship and deport him.
On Tuesday evening, Mamdani, a 33-year-old self-described democratic socialist, declared victory over Andrew Cuomo, former governor of the state of New York, in the Democratic primary for the 2025 New York mayoral election.
The outcome, one of the first major Democratic primaries since Donald Trump returned to office, is being considered as a barometer for the party’s potential recalibration nationally, at a time when it remains ideologically divided about its future.
it’s also like the most Un-American thing you could possibly imagine
Rounding people up because of their ethnicity is actually very American. It happened in the 1800s, the 1940s, and the 1950s. Just to name a few.
I’m not saying it never happened before, I’m saying it’s against our laws and morals.
It might be against my, and your, morals but each of the things I pointed out were carried out by Americans within the bounds of the law. Unfortunately whether or not this fits in with the morals and laws of the US as a whole is very much up for debate.
It’s only against our laws and morals if we actually don’t do it, and don’t allow it to be done again.
Umm kind of
I hate to break it to you, but Americans are exceedingly inculcated with the idea of exiling racial groups.
that’s what people from the outside seem to think it’s a very small percentage that are like that
It’s a large enough percentage to reach the White House, and unfortunately that’s all that seems to matter.
Ah, you’re making the mistake of thinking we have free and fair presidential elections. We do not. It’s fucked.
77 million or so.
Also just not accurate. People vote party over their best interests often due to ignorance and lies
I don’t know any R voter who has a single bad thing to say about what’s going on right now. I haven’t seen one online either. (except those saying it’s not going far or fast enough) I peek at /r/conservative every so often and it’s nothing but cheerleading.
And nothing happening right now is a surprise to anyone who wasn’t trying not to see it.
They are cool with it, or it’s not a dealbreaker, at best.
Arnold Schwarzenegger?
I know plenty of folks… and social media and youtube has a LOT of outspoken Republicans that don’t like Trump. I mean, this is not a small number either. I even met some at the NOKINGS protest.
He’s not doing anything surprising. He telegraphed exactly what he would do for years. We had 4 years of him trying and failing to do it, then 4 years of him saying he would do exactly what he is doing if they elected him again. And they voted him in anyway.
Their crocodile tears mean nothing, and I’ll not willingly associate with any conservative nor Republican until old age takes me in two or three decades, at which time the country will still be recovering from what they’ve done. And it especially doesn’t count if they are whining because their business or their family has been hurt by Trump policies. Republicans caring when they get impacted is nothing new.
I’ve seen several regretful Trump voters in news articles.
But yeah, haven’t met any IRL either. Including my own parents.
A lot of them took their flags down and sit quiet.
Afraid to admit they were wrong.
I agree
🫂
What gets me is those articles are always like “MAGA civil war over this decision from Trump!” And of course that’s what you want to hear, and you think ‘finally!’ and then it’s screenshots of like 3 disgruntled magas on X, one of whom thinks he hasn’t gone far enough.
That may be YOUR experience… not really mine.
Allegedly.
Matters little if that “very small group” has power and is getting away with it

You’ve probably never lived in the USA. From the sound of it.
You don’t need to live the US to know about it, and actually it makes it a lot easier because you aren’t dealing with their shitty education system or the propaganda. Besides, I’m Canadian, and have to deal with that pile of garbage all the damn time.
Get outta here acting like I can’t judge the US because I’m not in it. Get right outta here.
I’ve lived here going on 60 years, in multiple parts of the country, in about ten different states. I’m also a veteran.
100% accurate, whether that other commenter lives here or not.
