the Cuomo and Adams responses to Zohran’s scavenger hunt are the most “we’re going to lose this race by 30+” responses I’ve ever seen
the Cuomo and Adams responses to Zohran’s scavenger hunt are the most “we’re going to lose this race by 30+” responses I’ve ever seen
Who, exactly, are they supposed to appeal to?
Really pounding the kitchen table issues like how working families don’t have weekends off in the city he runs and how “having fun” is the same as getting murdered.
"Why do things suck in the city I'm mayor of?!"
the median NYT reader, evidently. presumably the NY Post also.
One hopes!
The 'old man yells at cloud' vibe is strong with those two.
"If you think that was some kind of FUN THING that was fun and positive and made people happy, why don't you ask someone who is being STABBED TO DEATH by COMMUNISM whether they are ok with SHARIA LAW and BIKE LANES for VIOLENT IMMIGRANTS in their HOUSE while ZOHRANI laughs right in their FACE?"
"Next on Mornings on 1..."
Who leaked The NY Post's lead article for tomorrow??
You definitely win the internet today!!!!
Making a half man/half beret cat hoarder seem normal by comparison is some serious loser energy.
Adams: Mayor Cuomo and I, to show Zohran a thing or two, have left thousands of sour cream and onion chip bags across the city filled with fresh Turkish bribe money. Cuomo: do not sniff the money. They're covered in c-c-baking powder. Cuomo and I love co-caaaake. We love cake.
I hope so
Cuomo’s next idea: a scavenger hunt where participants get clues on how to get away from him.
And have to pay $5 for a lukewarm cup of stale drip coffee.
Oh man, I didn't even think of this added bonus from it! 🤣 I saw his video for the hunt was was just like "dude! That's bad ass!" He's like the only human politician I've seen run my whole adult life And boy do other people HATE him for that haha
I hope they get trounced into oblivion. Let’s go NYC, leave no doubt!
Like at some point I wonder what that mental state is like. I think I'd start setting up for a loss and figuring out my next chapter. Just totally check out. Focusing on an inevitable loss seems depressing
He is breaking their brains.
Is it bad that I can’t take the guy wearing the beret seriously because it makes me think of Bayman from Dead or Alive?
Would you believe John Gotti Jr tried to have him killed and the collective response of the world was “maybe he had bad vibes or was unpleasant to be around”
Also he fathered two children with the current Queens DA
People, your only focus is the win, not power to a loss. If you feed into a negative, why that's not your side. Mind you and what you can do to be in rich the cause.
Literally the "STOP HAVING FUN" meme.
Isn’t that the “Fox Honest Truth?” “No class, free ice cream” 🙄
Bunch of whiners. They are just sad that they hadn't thought of it themselves.
I've never wanted to go see whatever those two idiots have had to say about something in my entire life, more than I want to right now. I'm still not going to do it, but I WANT to more than anything else that they've ever said.
SLIWA SWEEP!
Have they both already announced concession speech’s? It’s always good to to have things planned out. I think Cuomo has a bus to catch to Fla.
A limo maybe, or a borrowed jet
Cuomo said he’ll move to Fla the pain of knowing he’s gone to another state will be overwhelming. I think there’s a sale on sunscreen at Walmart
It's called public engagement and THIS is something that both Cuomo the abuser and adams the thief like to limit
How is this even a race
If they had any votes, they just lost half of them. People hate the smell of flopsweat and failure.
we’ve finally gotten to see what simultaneous robbie mook / liz smith / james carville dream campaigns in the same race look like
2 criminals & young , new guy. Tough choice
I’m really worried that the mayor’s election will be rigged.
That's really sad. And shows what you know.
From your lips, Micah...
It was actually kind of easy to find a mayor who didn't suck shit...
Look, I'm optimistic about him, but I will only believe this one he's actually been mayor for at least a year without sucking shit.
He has to kill less than one groundhog.
What if he kills pizza rat?
Then we admit we were wrong and vote to fund an Elon Musk Tesla tunnel to take him directly to the Hague for trial.
Waiting for the Nate Silver tweet updating the who the future of the Democratic Party is.
I can’t wait to see Mamdani dominate the election, it’s going to be so cathartic
We need something that is different and caring
This just in ... bsky.app/profile/barr...
Cuomo's running for Fox News host and Adams is running for a fresh pardon covering the remainder of his term.
Cuomo is NewsNation to join his brother.
Be hilarious when they both wind up in the very same gutter as Geraldo.
It’s wild, Adams and Cuomo are both Schrodingers Democrat here. They’re both completely compromised.
And together, they’re all running to keep Mamdani under 50% so their backers can spend 4 years saying “more people voted against him”.
Today really felt like they were campaigning against New York City as much as against Mamdani.
they responded?
They are so bad at picking up clues. Listening would help. (To constituents)
It’s comedically bad. Like Simpsons bit bad
Well as for me I'll be voting for the candidate who says good things can't happen
Adams and Cuomo are going to eat each other on Election Day.
no class free pizza
no, class free pizza no class, free pizza no, class, free pizza
What were their responses?
Adams had multiple but I think his funniest was "the real treasure is cops"
I hope Mamdani wins by historic margins!
I feel like people have memory-holed the fact that Adams didn't win because he ran a good campaign
Can you explain more? All I remember is that he was elected and then he started doing awful things.
Iirc (not from NY) a big part of his win was down to the rest of the field not navigating the ranked choice ballot well. Ex: this time there was a big "do not rank Adams or Cuomo" campaign
unparalleled rake-stepping
Now that you mention rake-stepping, Cuomo really is the Sideshow Bob of politics
honestly the visual i had when i typed it
only if there’s consequences, and there never are :/
There's a very good chance that we will see those two start a podcast together when they lose the election. I think they should call it The Biggest Losers
What did they say? Can someone link to/quote them here so I don't have to go looking?
Nevermind, found this. What a turd bsky.app/profile/jool...
If your politician isn't trying to make you live in fear are they really American enough for the people they need to keep divided?
The poors don’t have fun! Everybody knows that!
I wonder how much those two really believe they can win. Are they really delusional or just taking donor money and running away with it.
Yep
Lefties never learn. A scavenger hunt does not undo the work of Uncommitted which worked to suppress Dem votes in an election where we faced Nazis. Mamdani is Uncommitted. The right, billionaires, corporations, the media, and Nazis attacked Dems in Nov. Mamdani chose to help them.
The question I have is: when does either Adams or Cuomo cut a "secret" deal with King Donny / Stephen Miller for unfettered access to the city in return for hauling off Mamdani in the middle of the night?
It’s hard to fathom that Curtis Sliwa is the most dignified of Mamdani’s opponents. Astonishing, and not in a good way.
Until I saw this picture I genuinely thought his head was just like that
It’s easy to appear dignified when nobody notices you’ve said anything.
He's a nice guy! He loves cats!
Yeah
I'd honestly take him over Cuomo or Adams specifically because he cares for animals. Especially notable considering most Republicans seem to get off on killing as many as possible.
seriously, I'm thinking if he just keeps his mouth shut from now til November he could easily take second place
He rescued 15 cats 🥺 I hate his politics but he gets a point of respect for that.
whether having 15 cats is cool or yikes depends on the size of his house. every cat needs a room imo (like not a bedroom but a room in which it can go and be away from everyone else if necessary).
It sounds like his apartment is tiny, like 300sqft tiny, but he turned the whole apartment into a jungle gym sort of arrangement for the cats. And it looks like most of them are fosters.
Lol, he's not a nice guy. He does love him some cats, tho.
while i admit i'm on the wrong side of the country to be the target audience, it shocks me how little i hear about silwa. also adams, to a lesser extent.
He's back?
less juice than the atacama
Very geo- forward.
The ass grabber and the corrupt traitor. Fuck'em both.
the kids like tiger king, right
Are police required to run a scavenger hunt? I can't even parse the first one.
Dems wanted the police forces “defunded” ie refunded from buying military grade equipment and suffocating citizens to mental health responders to address non violent “criminals” this was ignited by George Floyd murders and a subsequent response of police brutality to relatively peaceful protests
Against police brutality esp concerning black americans. He is mocking that movement The second one is much more far fetched… The best response ive seen is that he is mocking Mamdani potraying him as a class president of seniors in high school giving a summer speech. “No class free pizza”
Ie things that the president of a high school senior class says to get elected. But it fails hilariously bc 1. cuomo should avoid using the word senior for any social media campaign 2. 5% of ppl reading the post get his joke- most are confused 3. Obvi this man is stuck in high school
cuomo should really be keeping the word "seniors" out of his mouth
“I commend my opponent for exposing people to our city’s beautiful history. I hope we will have a spirited debate soon over how I will best make its future just as beautiful.” It’s not that hard, people.
Apparently it is for some…
It’s called SHOW UP FOR YOUR PEOPLE
Simpsons gif no the kids are wrong.
Now I wanna see/read it
And then immediately have their people book another appearance on Maria Bartiromo.
The jealousy and fear are dripping off of them and it’s fantastic to watch. They’re like petulant little boys who weren’t invited to the party but have to pretend they don’t care to protect their fragile egos.
Absolutely zero charisma. But beloved by Republicans and the NYT.
I certainly hope so!
If the election looks like it will turn out that way, Trump will pull a stunt. Maybe it will be a full military crackdown. Maybe it will be some kind of DoJ intervention at the polls. Or maybe it will just be old fashioned skulduggery with loyalists on the inside. But he will do something.
Except its a local election, not federal He can make noise, but this election doesn’t concern him or fall under his jurisdiction. There’s not much he can do
makin dr oz look like jfk
yes but consultants are cashing checks
Consultants gotta eat. Same as worms.
roil in the dirt, come up during a rainstorm. yes
Anyone got a link to their responses? I need to see them seethe
