As New York City's Democrat mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani gains momentum, a troubling record is beginning to emerge—one that raises serious questions about his judgment, ideology, and honesty.
With no record of holding a real job outside activism, music, and campaigning, Mamdani has built his political identity on class warfare, racial rhetoric, and far-Left ideology. Victor Davis Hanson breaks down the latest on Mamdani in today’s episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.”

“He has some other disturbing things, as well. He posted a video on his social media of Indian Americans dressed as if they were Hasidic Jews. And they were making fun of the Hanukkah celebration. And they had a menorah there.
And they were chanting, as if they were rap music. It was very derogatory toward Jews. Yet, why would he put that on his social media account?”

Topic is American virtues
I’d rather they not. Let us and the sane democrats beat him on the merits. If he wins I don’t live in NY.
Which of those skeletons will stop an idealistic, brainwashed, pro-Palestinian college student from voting for free rent, free college, and free healthcare?
Victor Davis Hanson is the best commentator in the business. The man is brilliant.
Zohran Mamdani’s Skeletons Are Coming Out of the Closet”
Too bad it will not matter. The NY morons are going to elect him, especially the NY Lib women.
Then as mayor it’d be Halloween every day.
The thing about these so-called “skeletons” is Mamdani openly considers these as badges of honor. And that’s the scary part — a lot of New Yorkers LIKE HIM for this.
They will still elect him. I say fine, let them have him, good and hard.
If they do go ahead and elect this idiot, the President should tell them thusly: you want to be governed by a communist, fine and dandy — with one stipulation: you will not receive one cent of taxpayers’ money for your little experiment. You are on your own.
He’s going to win.
Sanctuary, radical left wing politics in N.Y. will unfortunately propel this infiltrator to become mayor. He will send N.Y. into a downward spiral of slums, poverty, city controlled grocery stores, and free everything except someone has to pay which will cause anyone with money to flee. The democrat sheep will fall for the free everything propaganda and vote him in. Well, according to the left wing whackos, N.Y. City should already be underwater so we can only hope it starts with Gracie Mansion.
Who needs elections when you have voter fraud?
He’ll get in if the left wants him in.
The Roman poet Juvenal lived in the early second centuries AD. He used the phrase "panem et circenses" (Latin for "bread and circuses") in his Satires to criticize the Roman populace's focus on immediate gratification and their neglect of broader political concerns.
“Victor Davis Hanson: Zohran Mamdani’s Skeletons Are Coming Out of the Closet”
won’t matter: his three opponents are going to split the anti-zohran vote, and zohran will be the new mayor of NYC ...
if Cuomo and Sliwa gave a crap about the future of their city, they’d drop out as the big money is coalescing around erik adams, so those two have zero chance of winning ... but naturally, their egos are much more important than the fate of a mere city ... and at least Cuomo will finally be 100% kaput ...
and it’s going to be great entertainment watching a communist muslim fanatic giving the NYC voters what they voted for good and hard ... and even greater entertainment watching the rest of the democrats and their lapdog media twisting themselves into pretzels trying to justify the destruction of NYC by one of their own ...
They'll elect him anyway.
And in major American cities, skeletons also vote. /s
Yep, and phoque those aholes that vote for him.
Who knew “Escape from New York” was a documentary ahead of its time?
