MODERATORS
Bu- bu- but is he gonna visit Israel? /s
context
In a debate they asked where candidates would visit. Once one of them said they'd visit Israel, a lot of others said they would too. Mamdani basically said he'd stay in NYC because he'd be the mayor and it's important to focus on his constituents. So then the moderators are like "Just to clarify, you wouldn't visit Israel?" And he's like I wanna focus on New Yorkers then they're like "Do you support Israel's right to exist as a Jewish state?" 🙄 Absolutely insane. The man just answers "where would you visit" by saying he wouldn't travel so he can focus on constituents and it turns into a purity test about his views on Israel's existence? Just shameful. Like imagine if someone is like "I'll have a salad" and then the waiter asks "Do you support cattle farmer's right to earn a living?"There are a lot of Jewish people in NYC, though, as Jesse Jackson once famously (and crudely) noted....
And?
