Donald Trump has offered Eric Adams a job in his administration, apparently to convince him to drop out of New York’s mayoral race. It’s now official and out in the open: Andrew Cuomo is allying with Trump to beat Zohran Mamdani.

    Liberals would rather lose to outright fascism than win on an actually progressive platform and that isn’t being hyperbolic at all, it is the brutal reality dooming this country to a very dark future.

    Comment I was responding to.

        Good job keeping the purity tests going.

        I mean, that worked so well in the last few elections.

          Please learn what a purity test means.

          Your lack of reading comprehension doesn’t apply here.

            Please learn how to win some elections

            Mamdani is talking about the issues, not making personal attacks or name calling.

            Be like the guy you like.

              Anyone who claims they’re changing their vote because someone pointed out how they misunderstood something they read on the Internet, already wasn’t voting that way…

              You lost the election with this strategy, and you’re still preaching from a high horse?

              The issue is that liberals are right wing but pretend to care about left wing causes, but the mask has fell off and no one with any critical thinking skills still buys their bullshit narrative.

              The issue is that liberals (neo-liberals, really) are horrified of actual progressive policy and will attack and do their best to undermine any progressive candidate even if it means republicans win, because the republican’s politics is more aligned with theirs.

          Why do you blame those to your left for god awful neoliberal candidates getting clobbered in elections? How many times do you need to see a status quo liberal get pummeled before you realize that no one is buying what they are selling?

            It’s funny.

            My comment about Mamdani winning by taking the high road and not being divisive is getting down voted.

            I guess purity is more important than winning the election.

              No, your comment about trump being a liberal is getting downvoted, then the weird stuff after
