@PoliticalKiwi What if it’s the obnoxiousness that actually drove up his favorability with right leaning men in particular and nothing at all related to his heterodox positioning? Israel? ICE maybe.
@nataliemj10 It’s immigration, not a secret. In a world where that doesn’t fly for a dem candidate, the bet is that anti-immigration translates to class resentment. Trump as a rich grandson of immigrants makes that work. Not crazy to try as a dem. Prob doesn’t work…
@nataliemj10 The article is about Trump. But comparing him to the last elderly president deemed incapable of doing the job effectively isn’t doing him any favors either I guess.
@kausmickey Mamdani won in NY because of young voters. NY barely votes by mail so all ballots get counted quickly relative to CA. Young voters vote late and vote DSA. 42% turnout in NY, 38 in CA. If the ballot harvesting was really an issue nithya should be up more.
