Okay, just hear me out for a second.... I completely agree they should endorse him, but rather than just saying they are irreverent (though this may actually be the case) I would like to know in clear and concise terms WHY they are waiting/failing to endorse the man whom was chosen by the people. I think knowing why they won't endorse him is very relevant to the discussion. Eith
TLDR; their silence is very telling.
I don't know about the rest of them, though I certainly have my suspicions, but with gillibrand it's very clearly just racism. That interview she gave was extremely telling.
“Gillibrand apologized for mischaracterizing Mamdani’s record and for her tone on the call,” the readout said.
Guess which other party apologizes when they're wrong
Notice how she apologized for "mischaracterizing" and for her tone? Yeah. Because she know she would do that.
The entire point is to mischaracterize the position and spread racist xenophobia. Why can liberals know exactly what this is when conservatives do it to black people but when racist Zionist do it to brown people they think "well, they apologized by saying 'it wasn't totally accurate'"
Don't believe these people trying to fight progress by trying to appeal to Americans racism and xenophobia. They aren't your allies. They aren't good people. They are trying to keep them and their corrupt friends in power. That's it.
That's quite a conspiracy theory you got there. Is it not possible she was wrong and then admitted it?
It's not a conspiracy theory mate. Republicans do it all the time. Signal racism and then say "oh I didn't mean it like that".
That's all she's done. She just did it with the liberal aesthetic you enjoy.
Disagree. She’s not a republiQan.
She was wrong, she admitted it and apologized and you want to claim that means she’s a racist. You’re wrong.
I think being born during the time of 9/11 has broken your and many Americans brains. Muslim fear mongering and racism is such a fundamental part of America that you can't seem to recognize how insane what she said was.
So much so that a half ass "apology" like she gave is enough for you I guess.
HAHAhahahaha! GTFO!
