This should be clue #527 that he has no idea what he’s doing and doesn’t belong in the position.

Unfortunately voters are dumb and believe anything.

“Reverses campaign promise”



I think there’s a word for this.

Well he did say he was a Democratic-Socialist and would govern as a Democratic-Socialist.
Part of that is spouting bullshite about free stuff for your voters and never actually doing it. Another part of it is finding pork barrel spending that could technically do some of what you campaigned on but funneling that into your own pocket.

Mamdani reverses campaign promise for rental assistance program—turns out it's too expensive


We are just a month in and the program that probably most of his voters were clamoring for has just gotten the axe.

There should be billboards around NY city that says "be happy! You voted for this!"

Not advocating for this or sure it’s even legal, but could the NYC govt impose rental rate limits?
