Zohran Mamdani's Still Begging Working Class New Yorkers for Money

There has to come a time when a guy like New York's Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani realizes that constantly begging for money — while his parents own a compound in Uganda — is a bad look, right?

Because we're now up to Mamdani's fourth attempt at begging for cash from voters, and we've got to admit it's a bad look, Zohran.

"It might be NO-vember," Mamdani says, "but I'm still saying yes to your donations, so head to Transition 2025 dot com and pitch in whatever you can and lets win a city that everyone can afford."

We're completely not shocked that Mamdani obviously hasn't raised the $4 million he was hoping to after his election. Socialists don't like parting with their money, after all. That's what "tax the rich" is all about, after all.

Good luck.

That's what socialists do. The wealthy are his donors. It's the middle and working classes that need to be impoverished so guys like Mamdani can maintain power and make everyone equally poor.

This is what'll happen when Mamdani fails to deliver: the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) will say the problem is our system of government doesn't give them enough power to deliver on their promises and demand a fundamental change to our rules and laws.

Yes, it is. It's almost like an SNL sketch, frankly.
