Does she already know she’s going to lose? Is this why she’s acting like this?

Over Labor Day weekend, @erinkoper posted this photo of LA’s mayor, Karen Bass, in Pittsburgh — and wondered why the leader of the country’s second-largest city had quietly traveled to Pennsylvania.

🚨 At the U20 Mayors Summit, Mamdani Says the Left Has Ceded “Quality of Life,” “Efficiency,” and “Fraud and Waste” to the Right

This was one of the more interesting arguments Zohran Mamdani made today at the U20 Mayors Summit, and a reminder that he can be genuinely sharp when he drops the “central casting” routine.

“In New York City, there are certain words that have taken on ideological associations.”

“Quality of life has come to be seen as somehow a right-wing concern. Efficiency… has been taken on as a right-wing concern, rooting out fraud and waste, a right-wing concern.”

Mamdani’s argument is that refusing to engage those issues actually helps the Right.

“If you are staring at an example of social disorder or social inefficiency, and the left refuses to explain either why it has happened or how they will fix it, then the right gets to point at someone in the immediate area and say, ‘That’s who did it.’”

The harder question is how much of the broader Left is actually prepared to follow the advice.

@artchad You’re mistaken at least in California, which does it the opposite of how you describe. Districts with the most need and furthest down the economic spectrum receive far more dollars per pupil. And it’s not working.

@nickkokonas Government RFPs often have a q&a timeframe, they’ll need to release those questions and answers. It’ll be interesting to see those.

If you can accept that there was a late surge of young and Dem voters in LA that tipped towards @nithyavraman but believe it was through nefarious means…

What if I told you there were similar surges in neighboring cities of West Hollywood, Santa Monica and Long Beach??
