NYC just shook the corridors of power. Lionel dives deep into Zohran Mamdani’s mayoral victory, calling it the most consequential political upset in decades. Mamdani's rise, hailed by progressives, signals the collapse of the old Democratic order and a transformation in what voters believe government should be. We analyze why Andrew Cuomo’s competence and specifics "landed flat" against a movement propelled by ideology, dreams, and promises of free buses and "economic justice". Plus, listeners debate the critical role of Curtis Sliwa, whose campaign split the anti-Mamdani coalition, and discuss the urgent need for a new strategy, leadership, and a "master of propaganda" for the opposition. Tune in for an entertaining and informative look at what the heck is going on.
