    I don’t think this would sway my vote, but it’s a reasonable statement. Free childcare is a big deal, and if Hochul wants to ride his coattails into doing good stuff and the only cost is him giving her props for it, that seems fine.

      I agree though I don’t know why people think Delgado is a progressive. Him and Hochul are one of the same

    Wow, he didn’t take long to fall to the establishment. It’s a little early to be endorsing the establishment democrat not fit for the moment that have been leading us to ruin.

    I suppose when the president declared he was best friends with Mamdani it was a red flag. Guy was playing everyone all along. Still playing us or no I hoped he could be the standard bearer, but he instantly surrenders to the establishment, there is no hope.

          Right? He shouldn’t endorse even without an alternative, seeing as the establishment democrats are leading us to ruin, and into the arms of the republicans, there should be no endorsement before one. He could express support for an issue without endorsing a candidate that represents an unwinnable strategy at odds with everything he claims to stand for.

          There is no world in which these democrats keep the Republicans from Absolute Power if they remain in control. Therefore endorsing one is a betrayal. Boooo indeed. It didn’t take mamdani long to roll over for the corrupt political machine in new york.

        Not the establishment democrats. Jesus christ, first he’s best friends forever with the president, now endorsing the governor, it didn’t take him long to lose his populist appeal and roll over for corrupt new york politics.

          Oh. You’re a leftist.

          And by leftist I don’t mean someone who believes in socialism or Marx. I mean someone who has no answers but still shits on people doing damage control.

            I don’t get hung up on directional guidance from people living up the asses of billionaires or their lackeys. Straight backwards is the only direction I care about right now, come join us in the sun! I know it feels warm and safe up there, but there is no future going further inside.

                I had hoped Zohran could help lead the way, but we will have to wait for some true populists outside of the state of new york it appears.
