Cuomo also got endorsements from Bill Clinton, Charlie Kirk, Laura Loomer, Chaya Raichik (LibsOfTikTok), and Brianna Wu. Quite a crew.

who became a citizen in 2018

Even when immigrants enter the country "the right way" and become naturalized US citizens through the legal process they still get slandered and demonized for it, wonder what that's about.

and does not share in our values

Does not share in your values. Weird how most people who have an ounce of human compassion are fine with him.

Santos literally just married some random USian woman to get a green card, he's like every gusano he lies about everything and has delusions of grandeur. He literally scammed everyone he knew and still somehow lived in porverty. Besides he has ties with Bolsonaro and Drug Dealers in Brazil.

[–] Adkml@hexbear.net 35 points 6 days ago

He was literally elected because people thought he shared values with them.

[–] DragonBallZinn@hexbear.net 22 points 6 days ago

You lot have no values beyond vanity and bloodlust. American “values” are objectively inferior.

I have spoken to several law enforcement leaders and they have grave concerns that the NYPD would suffer a mass exodus!

sicko-blur

[–] ElChapoDeChapo@hexbear.net 30 points 6 days ago

Go ahead, threaten us with a good time

[–] brygphilomena@lemmy.dbzer0.com 46 points 6 days ago (2 children)

Companies are threatening to leave.

Cops are threatening to leave.

Are we just glossing over the threats to fire a bunch of people to get their political goals achieved?

Or cops basically saying they won't do their jobs if their candidate doesn't win.

[–] Keld@hexbear.net 34 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

Yes we are, and the cops have done it before. The ny cops suffered the indignity that crime fell the last time they pulled the "We don't like this candidate so we're going to strike (But not call it that)." And yet.

[–] DragonBallZinn@hexbear.net 5 points 6 days ago

I hope Mamdani does can them all and replace every officer with loyalists.

a vote for Bart is a vote for anarchy

[–] DragonBallZinn@hexbear.net 10 points 6 days ago

Literally no arguments, just “I’m going to hold my breath until you give me what I want!”

I’m going to laugh if Mamdani uses any union-busting tactics against the pigs.

[–] tane6@lemm.ee 43 points 6 days ago (2 children)

Lmao and santos isn’t even a dem

[–] DragonBallZinn@hexbear.net 32 points 6 days ago (1 children)

“Please dems, vote Cuomo because we can twist him into doing everything we want.”

…wait a minute, so you mean to tell me that all the bad shit the narrative says is exclusive to blue states isn’t because leftism is wrong but because the controlled opposition just does everything the hogs wants and takes the fall for them?

[–] Kumikommunism@hexbear.net 5 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

Well he treats anyone to his left the same way as dems do, so: welcome to the resistance mr santos

[–] Rojo27@hexbear.net 42 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (1 children)

we know how to deal with him

Clearly not because he shouldn't even be this close to the top of the mayoral race.

[–] Evilsandwichman@hexbear.net 25 points 6 days ago

"We know how to sit there frowning and shaking our heads dismissively at him"

well known unhinged bigoted freaks... WELCOME TO THE RESISTENCE! liberalism

[–] Grownbravy@hexbear.net 38 points 6 days ago (2 children)

George, girl, you live on Long Island, babe.

[–] PKMKII@hexbear.net 26 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Lives in Long Island but talks like he’s speaking for the City? He must post in the NYC subreddits.

[–] DragonBallZinn@hexbear.net 16 points 6 days ago

Long Islanders, many of us leftists in rural red states would love to trade places with you.

We’re ready to make the trade whenever

[–] peeonyou@hexbear.net 9 points 6 days ago (1 children)

I thought he lived in prison

[–] Grownbravy@hexbear.net 4 points 6 days ago
[–] infuziSporg@hexbear.net 36 points 6 days ago (1 children)

You could make a solid ad for Mamdani just out of invoking the Kirk/Loomer/Raichik endorsements of Cuomo.

:we-agree: (why do we not have this Slammer emote?)

[–] DragonBallZinn@hexbear.net 22 points 6 days ago

I think the best thing about a Mamdani win is for once, seeing their smug grins be wiped off their faces.

For once, seeing these lucky bastards finally not get what they want and have to deal with the feelings of being told “no” for the first time.

[–] SkingradGuard@hexbear.net 31 points 6 days ago (2 children)

Lol chuds and ragebait are hard to differentiate. CW: brianworms

[–] DragonBallZinn@hexbear.net 24 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

Arguably there is no such thing as a good faith reactionary. All of them are just mindless trolls.

“Buh…buh….Mamdani makes the yeehaw cowboy incest freedom burger SAD! He’s a scaaaaaaary BROwN!”

Squeal you disgusting pig, SQUEAL! Amerikkka is an inferior, disgusting excuse for a culture. Corn syrup, incest, and cracker arrogance are nothing worth protecting.

[–] Awoo@hexbear.net 17 points 6 days ago (4 children)

If they did introduce IQ/intelligence tests to voting wouldn't it skew every vote further left?

[–] SoyViking@hexbear.net 28 points 6 days ago

The intelligence test they'll be using:

us-foreign-policy

[–] NephewAlphaBravo@hexbear.net 17 points 6 days ago

the usa did voting tests already and they were just used to prevent black people from voting

[–] purpleworm@hexbear.net 14 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

In a city like New York, probably not. IQ tests heavily favor people with more formal education, so it favors centrist Democrats in this case. The far left has a lot of people with less education, even if they broadly put a heavy value on education. How much it helps or hurts Republicans I think depends on where it is, but I think here it helps lib dems more.

[–] Le_Wokisme@hexbear.net 5 points 6 days ago

how many suds are a bar of soap?

[–] ShimmeringKoi@hexbear.net 29 points 6 days ago

Holy shit, one sentence in and it's hitler time

[–] Awoo@hexbear.net 20 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Zohran is more attractive. He can win.

[–] Des@hexbear.net 11 points 6 days ago

rizz + attractiveness

[–] DragonBallZinn@hexbear.net 19 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

“I’m going to throw a big tantrum because you’re not spoiling me rotten anymore, and anything I destroy will be YOUR fault!”

Porky once again having no real arguments for his own privilege besides making threats.

Oh, and SQUEAL YOU PIGS!

[–] Assian_Candor@hexbear.net 13 points 6 days ago

Cuomo really locked down the criminal sex pest vote

[–] Cruxifux@feddit.nl 13 points 6 days ago (1 children)

George Santos is such a fucking goof.

[–] spudnik@hexbear.net 11 points 6 days ago

In an alternate reality he's just scamming jet ski dealers with kited checks or something

[–] AlexLost@lemm.ee 9 points 6 days ago

Oh my God, new blood with new ideas... Kill the infidel, society as we know it will crumble if this one man gets to share his ideas with us.
