My takeaways from tonight's Congressional elections in NYC (1) I despise Mamdani but he has shown himself to be an incredibly formidable politician. Underestimate him at your peril. He endorsed against two Congressional incumbents in high risk races and looks like he's going to win both of them with Lander and Chevalier. Plus his third "outsider" endorsement of Valdez also won easily. (2) Mass Immigration and cultural drift has truly made NYC a post-American city. That's the future of America if we don't close the border and have mass deportations. All three of Mamdani's endorsees are literal self-declared socialists who will now be in Congress. (3) Israel, and in particular AIPAC are absolutely toxic in a Democrat primary-- especially anywhere vaguely "progressive"-- Israel was arguably the central issue in all three of these primaries and the candidate that was more hostile to Israel won in each. Expect a lot of Democrats to swing much harder against both AIPAC and Israel going forward. (4) The radicalism of these soon-to-be Congressmen is going to be a headache for Democrat leadership in the House and a gift to the GOP. The future of the Democrat party is radical and post-American in it's orientation. Since all of these candidates are in the world's media capital, they are going to get tons of attention. That isn't going to play well for the Dems in 2026 and 2028.
