He was one of the best presidents since Jimmy Carter and the country and the world would be better off with him in power vs Trump.

    That just goes to show how bad the US is at electing leaders. Just terrible, even when good options do exist, to the point that I still don’t fully believe Mamdani is the New York Mayor.

    That probably does something to it as well, but ok then change it to “I can’t believe that he was actually elected”.

    I don’t take anything for granted in North America. We just elected the most obviously corrupt person to be mayor of Montréal and even the total left/right votes between the four major parties skewed significantly right because we’re stupid as hell.

    Against his competion a healthy society would have looked at Cuomo and thrown him in the fucking garbage and Mamdani would have gotten 90%. Ya’ll gotta raise your standards, even if you don’t raise your expectations.

    Trump being horrendous in every way doesn't erase Biden, Obama and the like being bad leaders who preserve the status quo.

    Didn’t your mother teach you that it’s rude to dodge a question and ask one of your own instead?

    Answer mine and I’ll put the time into answering yours.
