This. The democratic establishment functionally appear to serve the same interests as their supposed opponents.

Andrew Cuomo Has Unmasked Himself as a Full-Blown Trumpist (www.thenation.com)

Politico reports that at a Hamptons fundraiser last Saturday, Cuomo told his well-heeled supporters that, contrary to all available evidence, he could win the New York mayoral race as an independent—because he was likely to have the implicit support of President Donald Trump.

The imperative of defeating Mamdani justified the new coalition Cuomo is trying to create of his die-hard loyalists (who are Democrats) with Trump Republicans.

Some of that latter group might be tempted to back Curtis Sliwa, the actual GOP nominee in the race. Cuomo told these donors, “We can minimize [the Sliwa] vote, because he’ll never be a serious candidate. And Trump himself, as well as top Republicans, will say the goal is to stop Mamdani. And you’ll be wasting your vote on Sliwa.” Cuomo went on to emphasize that he’d be a mayor who could find common ground with Trump:

America does but NYC is a fairly different electorate. I canvassed for Mamdani and many voters were exposed to anti-Mamdani propaganda and voted for him anyways. The cost of living in NYC is a far larger threat than narratives they come up with.
