This clown probably loves it. I can practically smell the soy through my monitor when it posts.
The fact is if NY elects this clown business, capital, and people will leave in droves. Dallas, Atl, Nashville, Houston, Charlotte, etc better have the building cranes warmed up and ready to go. Assuming any are available.

As long as they ignore 100 years of history, the entire cold war, context in general etc.
P.S. we're looking for men of character here not straw men

The problem, like with so many plagues, is that those that will flee will spread the disease of liberalism to these other areas. And when that city's resources are depleted, they will go to another. Like locusts, or the aliens in Independence Day. They will consume every natural resource until that city dies, then move on to the next. And those cities you listed...."We're next".

If Mandan is simply “left leaning”, then by that scale Bill Clinton would’ve been a staunch Rush Limbaugh-conservative.
“Left leaning”…..smdh.

Yep. If a state or political subdivision implements policies known to bankrupt them, and they were warned in advance, they're on their own.

short of another phony pandemic and massive mail in voting fraud that day will never come. the biden years were your party's last hoorah. in 2012 democrats controlled 3 out of 4 constitutional offices in arkansas, 3 out of 4 congressional seats , both senates seats and the republicans had a slim majority in the state legislature. today the republican party controls all 4 constitutional offices, the entire congressional caucus, both senate seats and the supreme court, democrats control just 13 out of 131 legislative seats. fringe party's like yours don't win elections. turn out in new york is 23% shitstain if he wins will get less than 800000 votes hardly a referendum jethro.
get cozy in mommy's basement you've got 3 1/2 more years of trump, then 8 years of vance

You left out the "that". As in policy.
Kind of the point.

Actually Kirk was often referred to as 'far right' which many on the right are commonly referred to.
When was the last time you heard the MSM refer to a liberal as 'far left'? It hardly ever happens.

The last administration was already doing that. Ask the hurricane flooding victims in N.C. and East Tennessee.

Good. I hope he wins and the liberal cesspool of NYC implodes. It will be a great study in communism v. capitalism. Sometimes tough love is required to teach lessons.

Yes I would..............................you see, I don't live off of nor count on the government to support me, not like jackass Dems do. I will continue to take care of myself and my family and not blame my lot in life on someone else.
How many jackass Dems do you know that can/would do that? You probably have more thumbs on your hands than that number would add up to.

Overall this is accurate. Not entirely even lukewarm on Bondi though. Patel, well there are a lot of variables and things we "can't" know, so I think the jury is still out.

I asked 2 AI sources, poe and grok, and got this:
poe:
quote:
Adjectives Used: Media often uses terms like "far-right" or "extreme" to describe Kirk, especially in the context of his association with conservative movements and views.
Adjectives Used: Descriptions of Mamdani may include terms like "progressive" or "leftist," but are less likely to use "extreme" or "far-left" compared to Kirk.
Context: While his policies may be seen as bold, the media often frames them within a broader spectrum of leftist politics, which can dilute the use of more extreme language.
And here is the 'context' for CK:
quote:It's a self fulfilling idiocy. Since MSM considers secure borders 'controversial', that gives them the 'right' to label him as extreme. But it's one of those 80/20 issues (or at least 60/40), not controversial at all, the opposite in fact.
Context: His positions on various issues, such as immigration and education, are frequently highlighted as controversial, reinforcing the use of stronger adjectives.
grok:
quote:
Adjectives Used: Terms like "far-left" or "extreme" are less commonly applied to Mamdani in mainstream outlets compared to Kirk’s "far-right" label. Instead, descriptors like "progressive" or "radical" appear, often in a neutral or contextual sense.
edit to add the actual Q I posed to AI: "Compare the mainstream media's descriptions of Charlie Kirk versus Zohran Mamdani. Specifically, when they use the terms right or left wing, do they use adjectives such as 'leaning' or far, or extreme more with one than the other?"

Good point. "Controversial" just means "counters the Leftist narrative."

Your comment/question would indicate you come from the viewpoint that it should be perfectly fine for cities or states to implement their wild “social experiments” and when it crashes and burns, (which it almost always does), the good old federal government is always there to bail em out.
No accountability, no risk, all reward.
A big part of the problem with the Left in this country.

If he's only "left leaning", the your average democrat is a far right radical

Same here. Better to relearn the lesson on a smaller scale than to relearn it at the national level.
