I’ve like Hochul since she’s become governor and I know as a Dem this has been a minority view. But she’s coming into her own.

Her main issue is folding over suburban pressure. She folded with her TOD housing plan & folded w/ congestion pricing until folks marched & called her office; even then she cut the price

I can understand why many Dems don’t like her. She negotiated on the congestion pricing which is typical and that seems to be pleasantly successful. I don’t think she’s done with the housing issue. Like I said I think she’s coming into her own.

Some things you shouldn't negotiate on, political cowardice is the main reason why Dems are unpopular. It's sad that the only reason she's showing spine is bc of Trump & Republicans dismantling several institutions that benefit NY, it also doesn't bode well that establishment Dems won't back Mamdani
