A standout moment of New York mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani's interview with Fox News came when he looked into the camera and spoke directly to Donald Trump, figuring he may be watching.
Agreed. If nothing else, he has the gift of gab. Which is more than any other candidates. But what he’s saying is good too. Desperately wish we could have a candidate like this in the Midwest.
TIL - thats neat! I use the phrase all the time, so did my dad. His dad was the first generation born in the US, somewhere from southern Ireland (not much in the way of paperwork to track before that).

It’s to my understanding and Irish idiom / saying. Those that traveled to Blarney Castle, in the county Cork. And kiss the Blarney stone which was part of the battlements. Were often said to be blessed with the gift of gab.
Basically talk good/persuasively.
