I am referring, of course, to Hakeem Jeffries who literally endorsed Zorhan Mamdami at the last possible moment, about a day before early voting started.
I still want to see him primaried, and if he suffers the fate of Tom Foley, I will not be disappointed:
Representative Hakeem Jeffries, the House Democratic leader, endorsed Zohran Mamdani for New York City mayor on Friday, the latest sign that skeptical party officials are swallowing concerns about their nominee as Election Day nears.
The endorsement by Mr. Jeffries, a Brooklyn Democrat, is more meaningful than most. A national party leader, he is also one of the city’s most prominent Black politicians and has been a sharp critic of the Democratic Socialists of America, which counts Mr. Mamdani as a member.
Yeah, Jeffries is a corporate stooge with dead eyes, but he knows which way the wind is blowing.
………
The endorsement came in written form just a day before early voting is set to begin. People familiar with his thinking said that Mr. Jeffries had planned to announce the endorsement earlier but pushed it back because of the ongoing government shutdown.
Bullsh%$. He was hoping for Zamdami to have a major gaffe, or for Cuomo's opposition research to come up with something.
He endorsed because he had to endorse
………
Several high-profile New York Democrats remain uncommitted to their party’s nominee. New York’s senators — Chuck Schumer, the Senate Democratic leader, and Kirsten Gillibrand — have not made endorsements in the mayor’s race and appear unlikely to. Jay Jacobs, the state party chairman, said outright that he would not endorse Mr. Mamdani, citing the candidate’s democratic socialist beliefs and sharp criticism of Israel.
Yeah, Gillibrand and Schumer should be primaried as well.
For them, "Vote blue, no matter who," only applies when corporate stooges are running.
The Democratic Party establishment (There is no Democratic Party establishment) are a bunch of cowardly incompetents who need to be fired.
