It’s good that Rep. Tenney is speaking up on this issue. But to be honest, her words don’t carry much weight. After all, she’s a Republican politician who is criticizing a Democrat politician.
Here’s what would carry weight: A public comment by NYPD Commissioner. Jessica Tisch. She is well-regarded by almost everyone. A public comment from her might help Mamdani get his mind right.
It’s too late. A public comment would be the equivalent of getting an F for the day.
