Kamala Harris forms power pact with NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani — as their lengthy phone call emerges

Kamala Harris is quietly strengthening ties with one of the Democratic Party’s fastest-rising progressive stars, holding an extended private phone call with New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani.

The conversation, which took place last week, focused on the future of the party and served as the beginning of what is expected to be a longer series of discussions between the two, Axios reports.

“This is about positioning for the 2028 primary where no candidate knows where the lane for support for Palestinian rights is going to be but they know there’s going to be one,” Republican consultant Mike Madrid told The California Post.

“No question this is a risky move but it’s one transforming both parties and the calculus at the moment has become it’s better to do something than nothing,” he added.

Harris’ outreach came just days after Democratic socialist candidates backed by Mamdani scored victories in three New York congressional primaries, defeating two incumbent lawmakers and further cementing the mayor’s growing influence within the party.

A source familiar with the mayoral conversation told The Post Harris reached out to Mamdani as she tries to rebrand herself to be more appealing to young Democrats following her 2024 defeat — and congratulated the socialist mayor for his winning endorsement slate in New York City.

“The vice president reached out to have a conversation, and we’ve had a brief conversation,” Mamdani told SiriusXM’s “The Clay Cane Show” Wednesday. “We’ve been in touch over the last few months, and I really do appreciate her outreach.”

Strategist Matt Klink told The Post that the choice Harris is making is a “a strategic calculation for 2028.”

Thank you very much and God bless you.

Kinda looks like Horizontal is packin' on the pounds during her unemployment. Does Madmani drink box wine? I believe Willie's main squeeze is in the commie polling lead but she has yet to endorse the Maine nazi.

Mamdani shouldn’t trust her or listen to her. He represents the new direction for American politics-—not her.

When asked if he would like to run for President after some political maneuvers about foreign born candidates he said “No, no I would not want anyone to fool around with our Constitution. I like the Constitution as it is.”

Sleep with dogs and you will get fleas. She’s desperate to get back into the spotlight.

Mamdani’s wife to him after he met with Kamala: “So, what did she have to say?”
Mamdani: “To be perfectly honest, I am not sure.”

That would be a presidential ticket with a combined IQ under the 100.

I agree. This is a desperate and poorly thought-out, low-intellect move, because IMO, Mamdani and his kopmrades will be tired old crap by 2028.

I can imagine the conversation
Harris: Hey Zohran, what do I have to do to have a chance in 2028?
Mamdani: Simple, just say you hate the Jews, you are a shoe in
Harris: Sounds good, as you know I dont have a rational thought in my head, I have to be told what to say so thanks for the info..Hate Jews, sounds easy enough I already cant stand by cheating Jew husband

Uh, let me guess: Kamala wants Zohran to be the VP on her ticket.

It's a mistake to underestimate Zohran Mamdani. He may be a Communist but he's not an idiot. If the Democrats end up packing the SCOTUS, they'll announce that he's eligible to run for the POTUS just like that.
