The Mamdani Experiment

Have you noticed that the name Zohran Mamdani has, as of late, become like a household word. It is almost impossible to turn on your T.V. without having this man making headline news everywhere. Again, this is someone that has, like Obama, risen from the tombs of the unknown overnight. A few months back doubt if anyone in the nation knew who this man was while today, he seems to have become an overnight celebrity. So…why all the hullabaloo, all the fuss, all the commotion?

Well, I say the answer does not take a rocket scientist, does it not? Mamdani’s stardom comes exclusively from the fact that he is an avowed communist, and he will become New York’s Mayor come November. What makes him stand out from the rest is simply because, for the first time ever, his name is associated as a full-blown communist as he openly and transparently stands on the most Marxist platform ever.

Ironically, Mamdani’s communist ideals have been long advocated for by democrats and the Democratic Party as we all know was the case with Barack Obama back in 2008. Only difference between Mamdani and the rest of the Marxist democrats is in the latter’s [Mamdani], transparency in letting the world know what he is, while the rest of the Party have tried to camouflage the truth forever more.

If you are questioning whether this guy will or will not make it in November, I dare say, he will be elected as the mayor of one of [the] most iconic cities in the world. Meaningful? You bet, Mamdani’s mere presence as a political figure and the fact that he won the primaries in N.Y. is, whether we like it or not, but a telltale sign that communism is alive and well in this nation. It is a telltale sign that not even a Trump presidency and/or a MAGA coalition have been able to free our nation from this cancer in its entirety.

Me personally, I have mixed emotions as to what I would like to happen. On the one hand, of course, I simply want to see this man defeated. Vis-à-vis, the sarcastic in me would really like him to win so that New Yorkers have a good taste of the same medicine that all we Cuban Americans had to take in our native homeland of Cuba. I still remember some of Castro’s unending speeches back in the day, promoting some of the same nonsense that communism sells to the useful idiots. Freezing of rents, free this, free that, free the other.

Again, the sarcastic in me, cannot wait to see New Yorkers in lines waiting to see what Mamdani’s so-called government-owned stores have to offer. I would like to see New Yorkers paying $8 dollars for a gallon of milk and having some of today’s mega food stores running with empty shelves. Would love to see how once successful businesspeople find themselves fighting a government that hates capitalism and millionaires; having a government that has control of all the means of production «À la Karl Marx”.

In summary my dear friends, for God’s sake, let us be clear on this. Zohran Mamdani is not a new phenomenon. Please, give me a break. Again, all that is different with Mamdani’s Marxist ideals, is the fact that he has been willing to make public the same radical Marxist policies that Obama and the rest of the Democratic Party have unpretentiously been pushing forever before.

Bottom line, Zohran Mamdani, embodies a new wing of the Democratic Party, a new cabal of ideologues, i.e., Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the Squad, like this Jasmine Crockett and others that have found themselves with a listening audience of radical voters in the Party that are willing to open-up and tell the world that they are full-blown communist that hate the “old United States” – the one that you and I treasured.

I am curious to see how Mamdani’s test-tube experiment works out. I am interested in watching how New York’s Jewish community, albeit one of the largest outsides of Israel, vote in November, as, besides all else, Mamdani’s has a Shia Muslim lineage and has openly admitted to his antisemitic ideals. Well friends, guess I have made my point. I am telling you, watch closely as many in the nation, inclusive but not limited to our news media dare embrace this Mamdani clown and make him an icon for the Left, much like we did in Cuba with Fidel Castro and the rest is history. God save us and God save the United States of America.
