Mamdani has achieved “I could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody, and I wouldn't lose any voters, OK?” status. Every (legitimate, disqualifying in a sane political environment) criticism leveled against him makes his base like him more. His is an eight grade class president-ass campaign: free vending machines, no homework, Fridays off. None of it is actually feasible. None of it will work. No one cares. Some people just want to watch the world burn.
