Hochul’s spineless Mamdani help: Letters – Latest News
The Issue: Gov. Hochul endorsing New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani.
Rather than show some spine or backbone, Gov. Hochul has endorsed the socialist, antisemitic Zohran Mamdani (“Oh, gov us a break, Hochul,” Editorial, Sept. 15).
In addition, Hochul justified her choice by saying that Mamdani will do every thing to stop President Trump.
Since when did Trump turn out to be half of the rationale to vote both for or in opposition to a candidate?
He shouldn’t be half of the equation.
I pray that when Hochul runs for reelection, New Yorkers will bear in mind congestion pricing and her Mamdani endorsement — two failures she compelled down our throats.

Hochul’s lack of willingness to stand up for what is true — not endorsing a candidate who helps defunding the police, the destruction of Israel, antisemitism and different radical socialist concepts — exhibits her true colours.
She is simply one other political hack.

If anybody continues to be questioning whether or not Hochul is totally managed by the far-left radical Democrats who control New York politics, then her help for Mamdani ought to take away any doubt.
Her capitulation to the fanatics who’re destroying New York, metropolis and state.
This is one other clear instance of the relentless pursuit of energy by leftist antisemites, anti-capitalists and anti-Americans.
New Yorkers can keep away from political and societal suicide by voting in opposition to such militancy.

Hochul wouldn’t be governor if Andrew Cuomo hadn’t picked her out of obscurity to be his working mate.
You would assume she’d endorse him for mayor, however her true colours have been revealed.
She has no loyalty and, like several no-core politician, stoops to what others need.

Hochul, who will go down because the worst governor in New York’s historical past, endorsed Zohran Mamdami — who, if elected, will turn out to be the worst mayor in New York City historical past, who was additionally endorsed by the worst earlier mayor within the metropolis’s historical past, Bill de Blasio.
Maybe it’s time to contemplate transferring to a free American state.
God help New York.

Hell has lastly begun to freeze over; Gov. Hochul has misplaced her thoughts to endorse Mamdani.
Welcome to New York City, quickly to be a sewer of a metropolis.
We will need all of the help we will get to outlive a Mamdani administration.

It is unlucky that a mediocre governor, with just about no significant accomplishments, has opted to be acknowledged not for making the state a higher place, however for endorsing a socialist whose insurance policies are dangerous for New York City.

Why is anybody shocked Hochul is supporting Zohran?
She is simply pandering to his base for the sake of her 2026 re-election marketing campaign.
Zohran is so scary along with his anti-public security agenda.
Voters have no thought what they’re in store for.

The political icing is on the cake now that Kathy Hochul has determined to endorse mayoral candidate Mamdani for mayor within the upcoming November election.
Why on God’s inexperienced earth would she even think about this man to be the following mayor?
Has she no common sense?
Should Mamdani win the election, he’s going to show this metropolis into a political catastrophe.
Many people will resolve that it’s time to pack up and go away town for a safer place.

I imagine Hochul is barely endorsing Mamdani as a result of he’s the front-runner within the mayoral election.
She’s on the lookout for votes as a result of she is aware of that New Yorkers have blended emotions about her for one more time period.
She is considering her own political gain.
By endorsing Mamdani, Hochul is in help of defunding the police, legalizing prostitution and antisemitic habits.
