Late night comedy’s all-out effort to drag Zohran Mamdani across the finish line in New York City’s upcoming mayoral election continued on Monday on Comedy Central with its most direct bit of campaigning. The Daily Show’s Jon Stewart welcomed Mamdani to tell him how much “I love hearing” about his campaign and to claim that he has been surprised establishment Democrats have not fallen in line behind him.
Stewart insisted that he is not “blowing smoke,” but he clearly was, “And what I love hearing about this is, one of the things that has been so frustrating in our politics is so much of it has been defined over these last ten years as the negative case against someone, and finally—and I think this is not blowing smoke -- I think you've made an affirmative case for people. I think the enthusiasm that they have for you is because you have made an affirmative case that's not about protecting something that is going to be lost or a bad man that’s over there.”

Mamdani’s “affirmative case” is basically being the middle schooler who runs for student government promising no homework and free ice cream all day, every day. There’s also the Hamas propagandizing that, somehow, Stewart never managed to bring up in a 30-minute interview.

Being “anti-capitalist” pays well.
Ain’t Communism wonderful.
I thought Jonathan Stuart Liebowitz retired years ago?
Jewish liberals have a deep streak of hatred for themselves.
Did Jon Stewart say he’ll be first in line to convert to islam ?
The Islamists in NYC are so close, they can taste it.
Now might be the time they get sloppy, screw up somehow, verbally or politically, and let the mask slip. Hella ugly under that mask.
Odds are slim but Momdani’s opponents need to keep the pedal to the metal.

And, oh yeah, the tuition is going to double. And we’re going to re-institute school prayer - five times a day.
yet another self loathing liberal Jew
If taxing ,"rich" at 50% hasn't already solved all of New York's problems, why the hell would taxing them at 53% do so?
The money coming in is not going to fix the problems. It is going to friends, families and new or larger bureaucracies or simply "disappear".
Same thing here in Commiefornia. I don't understand why we keep believing that the very people and policies that created the problems are going to solve the problems.
