    You are still clinging to the Russian collusion lie, even after it has been exposed as Clinton campaign propaganda? Unreal.

    And there is no chance Trump could keep the incredibly busy schedule that he keeps, negotiating with foreign leaders on an almost daily basis, if he had even the beginnings of dementia.

    Unfortunately, you lack credibility. Probably in the bottom 10% of informed voters, if I were to estimate it.


    GOOD DAY

    After further consideration, I'd like to correct myself. I peg you as being in the bottom 5% of informed voters.

    Give me a reason why I shouldnt report both of these racist comments. Like seriously. There has to be a line drawn here and you are crossing it.

    Only reason is because the mods won't do anything about it. They've said even more incredibly racist things in the past and nothing was done.

    LOL, my comment did not mention race. Mamdani is of Indian ethnicity. Not even mentioned in my post.

    If you are going to stoop down and play the race card, at least do so when it's appropriate.

    I genuinely don't understand how we've got nearly 30 pages of poo flinging about a mayoral candidate in a city most of us don't live in.

    Mamdani is a CITIZEN of Uganda. Not just from Uganda -- but an actual CITIZEN of Uganda. The mayor of the largest city in America being a citizen of Uganda just doesn't strike me as a good thing. Divided loyalties is one of many problems...

    First we had a Barack Hussein…. Then someone named Kamala and now a Zorhan… the flyover state tolerance meter is about to explode if this guy doesn’t lose.

    He will win and he will be widely popular in an otherwise ungovernable city.

    This is what could become of NYC if a citizen of Uganda is handed the reins. As a note, despite all of its problems, South Africa is much better off than Uganda.

    Welcome to Johannesburg. This Is What It Looks Like When a City Gives Up.
    https://www.wsj.com/lifestyle/trave...5?st=5ZFBNR&reflink=desktopwebshare_permalink
    JOHANNESBURG—What does it look like when a city stops trying? Visit Johannesburg, where instead of providing basic public services, the government just warns residents not to expect them.

    Signs tell you what crime you’re most likely to fall victim to at highway exits and intersections; beware “Hi-Jacking Hot Spot” or “Smash and Grab Hot Spot.” Homeless people routinely direct traffic when the stoplights don’t work. Minibus taxis that ferry workers around the city often drive on the wrong side of the road to avoid rush hour traffic.

    Johannesburg, South Africa’s biggest metropolis, markets itself as a “world class African city.” It’s home to some of the continent’s biggest companies and its largest stock exchange. But private firms have gradually taken over public services, from security to healthcare to mail delivery. Insurance companies fix potholes and sponsor fire brigades to reduce claims.

    It’s all become a bit embarrassing for the South African government, which is set to host the G20 Summit meeting of heads of state here in November. In March, South African President Cyril Ramaphosa chided Johannesburg officials for what he called “not a pleasing environment” and told them to address a slew of issues ahead of the meeting.
