Mamdani’s Numbnut Voters: Lenin purportedly said that it only took “four years” to plant the seed that would never be uprooted

“Numbnut” is derogatory American slang, sometimes used for humor, to mean a “slow-witted, unresponsive, or inept person.” But no humor exists in the fact New York City (NYC) voters, always on the edge of numbnut-osity, went over it by electing socialist/communist Zohran Mamdani mayor. A majority (50. 4%) of NYC voters demonstrated unbelievable incomprehension, as would be expected from slow-witted, inept and-by choosing to ignore numerous red flags about Mamdani-unresponsive constituents. As the proverb goes, they will now have to “reap what you sow.” Mamdani’s campaign was a blank check of promises providing all sorts of things. These included free bus fare, government-run grocery stores (already a $29 million failure in Kansas), free high quality child care, freezing rents, maintaining abortion rights, opposing President Donald Trump, increasing the minimum wage to $30 by 2030, etc. Prior to the election, Trump forewarned a Mamdani victory could well result in the loss of federal funding to NYC wherever it could legally be done. Thus, Mamdani may well face having to fund a lot more than he anticipated to make good on his blank check promises. It will be interesting to see from where such money comes to do what his campaign claimed it would do to make NYC life more affordable. He made clear some of it will come by way of increased taxes for the wealthy and corporations, which is already leading to an exodus. (A recent Daily Mail poll reported over 760, 000 New Yorkers would “definitely” leave the city if Mamdani won while another two million indicated they would seriously consider it.) Labeled a communist by Republicans, Mamdani denies it, calling himself a democratic socialist.
