LOL . . . of course they do. Behind the scenes leftist politicians and bureaucrats are almost never truly as radical and as much of a believer as their public persona portrays.
I wonder the same thing; I love the old movies where NYNY is attacked and the country rallies and kicks major butt. But those are movies, if the commie ran cities die today, we would just walk away, they earned their fate.
That they have. People are fed up with conservatives bailing out NY City only for leftists to regain control and trash the city again with their insane policies.
NOW THAT PEOPLE ARE SCRUTINIZING HIS COMPLETE BACKGROUND, THE LYING COMMIE, ZOHRAN MAMDANI, SAYS HE AIN'T NO MARXIST: THE DEMOCRATIC SOCIALIST JUST 'EMBRACES' COMMUNIST IDEOLOGY. SO IN OTHER WORDS, EXACTLY LIKE EVERY OTHER NATION-HATING LEFTIST IN OUR COUNTRY. I'M GLAD THAT'S SETTLED.
