    I hate how socialist has become mixed int9 political discourse. You don’t need to be a democratic socialist or regular socialist to implement social policy. A democratic socialist is redundant because socialism is democratic (correct me if I’m wrong).

    Well if there’s one place we seriously need to overthrow the horrid “opposition” it’s this. Why the hell is a guy who resigned in disgrace even getting ANY support right now.

      Because the dollars of this country that are available to be donated to political campaigns are largely held by dirtbags and I’m guessing those dirtbags know a bunch of other skeletons that are in Cuomo’s closet which could be broken out if he ever tried to defy them

      I think it’s very telling that mamdami’s money comes from 16,000 individual donors while Cuomos comes from less than 3,000 individuals. Cuomo still has name recognition and frankly most people don’t care as shown by repeated election of moderate Dems even in “safe” democratic areas.
