Gotcha haha but yes I think he can follow that same track and dominate. One of Obama's biggest flaws (setting aside overall criticism from his left ofc) was hesitating because he didnt want to be labelled "Muslim communist", so he didnt want to be aggressive advocating for even progressive liberal solutions that he may believe in. El-Sayed is getting that treatment very early on so he isn't going to give a fuck when it comes to a presidency. He is still a progressive liberal like Obama, but that is what will win in US electoralism in the 2030s, I'm sure. Also most of his allies will be to his left, so I don't think we will see anything worse than what we've seen from Mamdani when it comes to that stuff.
