"I liked his policies, mainly his support for education and affordable housing, said Shirley Wong, 70, of Bensonhurst, referring to Mamdani. "He seems to listen to us."

But less than a year ago, Wong cast her ballot for Trump. She cited the influx of migrants in her neighborhood, as well as the cost of living under President Joe Biden. But now, Wong said she regretted voting for Trump, citing the Big Beautiful Bill's projected cuts to Medicaid

Mamdani LITERALLY converts Trump voters into non-trump-voters.

Of COURSE the democrat party hates him; he exposes their grift and gets their prey to pay attention!

Zohran keeps things on policy, which is the only arena the personality cult and party faithful can't go.
