The Democratic Party Establishment Should Follow Zohran Mamdani’s Example

At each level, the Mammani on the Economic Populist Company in New York was reproaching at each level. ordinary wisdom A dried and starving idea of ​​a democratic institution. Threatened everyone from The beauty of Islamophobia and Fabricated allegations of anti -Semitism by The ghost of Ain -Randy’s capitalMammani continued to focus on the agenda of reforms involved in the basic needs of the New York struggling for: eliminating tariffs on city buses, expanding the city’s housing while freezing rent and increase in corporation and wealthy taxes. His victory means a clear moment of spilling in a discussion on how the Democratic Party should invent itself after 2024.

Mammani successfully revived the appeal to the fact that another candidate for rebels, Howard Ding, called the “Democratic Win of the Democratic Party” – and, doing so, he read the way for the national Democrats to return his vote as a party of the people. In his main night speech, Mammani referred to the diagnosis of Franklin Roosevelt about the authoritarian drift of the 1930s, which thought that the citizens of the strongman had a shortage of despair in the conditions of “confusion and weakness of the government”, not to tear. Mammani acknowledged his victory as proof that “if we did everything clear, this is what we do not need to choose between freedom and justice.”

It was the topic of his company, which saw him increased from an early poll deficit against former New York Governor Andrew Kuom, a true avatar who died in a democratic status. Kuoma was appointed spiritual animal of the National Party in Thral to the Great Tickets and Sinecure owners who rallied to approve the political leader who had to touch the well -deserved shame. The Super PACS, summed up by Cuomo, crashed more than $ 33 million into primary, converting the election referendum on the monetary braintrust over the national party. His main super pack, fix the city, raised $ 25 million, The largest contribution for the merchaeled company“Muh with his deep pockets of former Gop Michael Bloomberg mayor.”

But even this magnificent payment was not enough to support the deadly candidacy out of the onslaught and corrupt hacking policies. As the governor, Kuoma condemned the thousands of older New York die in overloaded nursing homes In the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic and then detained hide the actual number of dead. He was also forced to retire reliable charges of sexual harassment and seeking during his mayor discredit your charges. And in an unexpected mistake with catastrophic national consequences, he made a deal from the New York Republican Party made the difference In the narrow content of the national GoP in most home averages 2022. Desperate party institutions of big money, maybe just highlighted Tomas Nasta Tamani Paul with the dollar head And there was a better chance of winning.

Mamman-kuoma-dismantling was really functioning as a distilled version of the same ideological and execution battle that now competes the National Democratic Party. The Democratic National Committee dispersed with Deputy Chairman David Hogg, 25-year-old survived Usually myopic and changed fashion. Recently, two influential union leaders-Leando Weingar, head of the American Teachers Federation, and Lee Sonders, president of the US Federation of State, District and Municipal Employees-Associated from Interest County after DNC Chairman Ken Martin blocked their membership and Posting with the detachments.

Weinigten called on Martin’s leadership for no longer doing to combat regressive cost cuts in the GoP tax account, and reflected on the Group’s status. In her letter of resignation, she wrote that she did not want to “be the one who continues to ask why we do not increase the tent.” Sanders also said that the Democrats needed to accept changes and expand their electoral base. “These are new times. They deserve new strategies,” he detach The Guardian. “We must develop to satisfy the urgency of this point. It is not the time to close the ranks and turn in. This is our responsibility for the opening of the gate (and) welcome others.” For his part, Martin denies any animus against trade union leaders, or more widely in the constituency, saying: “The return of the working class and Trump’s termination is harmful to families is exactly where we are at the focus.”

Truth be told, it is difficult to understand where the party’s focus is on. Yesterday, Texas Democratic Representative Al Green presented a resolution to impeach Trump for his unconstitutional Iran – and only 79 members of the Democratic House, less than half of the party’s house, voted against the movement within the resolution. An even more unpleasant flight from consistency was the hug of the party on the Wall Street-Berezhvyur “Taco”-Trump is always chickens “-some cheap hypocrisy, which has long experienced a democratic institution from developing effective opposition tactics. The Iranian bombing was too harshly reminding about what is good when Trump is a chicken and go on the GoP policy agenda.

Zohran Mamdani’s victory is a powerful reproach of this brand policy as a category in social media. Bypassing the ritualized ethnic identity, which has long been determined by the choice in New York, Mammani returned many illegal voters to the political process, remaining focused on the needs of ordinary New York, and not on the wishes of large tickets. And, like the FDR, he understands the main mandate to give the struggle and desperate citizens, for which to actually vote. Hopefully, after the shock disappears, the strategs of the Democratic Party institution will finally follow his example.
