This is a 34-year-old spoiled punk with absolutely no experience, zero, zip, nada, whatsoever.
Mamdani was a rapper who worked as a foreclosure prevention counselor for a very, very, brief time. He then started grooming his anti-American ideals by volunteering for socialists. He, with less experience than he has now, ran successfully for the state Assembly in 2019. In Albany, he introduced only 20 bills in four years and passed just three. It was clear that his priorities centered around punishing non-profits that worked with Israel.
This year, he missed one-third of the legislative session. In short, Mamdani has no real experience in governance, business, law, finance, or running any size of organization. Still, if you want to be lectured about how bad Israel is, spewing that hatred is the only thing Mamdani can do.
In Michigan, the Democrats have pulled another candidate out of the Twilight Zone, and this one is just plain weird and equally incompetent.
His name is Samuel Smeltzer, and he identifies as a honey badger and goes by the name “Elyon Badger.” Smeltzer has a history of violent posts on the radical leftist version of X, BlueSky, as reported by The Washington Free Beacon. He is running for the House of Representatives in Michigan’s Seventh Congressional District, which Republican Rep. Tom Barrett currently represents.
Smeltzer’s weirdness is only outdone by his seething hatred of conservatives. He praised the assassination of Charlie Kirk and United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson. He was banned from X for saying that the United States deserved the 9-11 attacks.
