Sour Jeffries Says Mamdani Has 'Work To Do' After His Candidates Oust House Incumbents

Reply in thread

It reminds me of when "the squad" popped up and everyone said they were going to take over but now AOC just keeps endlessly compromising and endorsing establishment Democrats with a few mild progressives here, but she actually opposes many progressives now like Maureen Galindo and endorses pro-ICE Zionist cops instead. At this rate it's going to take 500 years to get something done at which point it probably won't happen anyways.

That's why people say that any politician who does entryism and compromises eventually just turns into an establishment ghoul because if you compromise once you can keep compromising again and again.

Sour Jeffries Says Mamdani Has 'Work To Do' After His Candidates Oust House Incumbents

I think people underestimate how unpopular Jeffries is. Now the alleged logic of Mamdani is that he wanted to start small and not instantly piss off all the establishment Democrats But it did feel like he was just pulling up the ladder after himself.

Mamdani used his power to convince the DSA not to endorse the challenger to Jeffries, which is even worse than just endorsing Jeffries.

The latest win by Mamdani was some small fries, which is cool and all, but he's certainly not yet challenging any real power. And Hakeem Jeffries is already calling for Mamdani to be put in his place.

Mamdani could have had a shot earlier against Jeffries, but Mamdani has compromised on many picks too such as Jessica Tish for his police chief, endorsing Kathy Hockul for governor etcetera.

In any case. I don't think Mamdani is nearly as bad as someone like Graham Platner, so I won't waste much of my time on him, but I don't think he's going to achieve his goal with all these massive compromises.
