Listen, seeing this guy say he's going to arrest Netanyahu if he enters New York City and then win the primary for Mayor, is fucking wild. You have to take the wins where you can get them. Besides, I need something good to happen every once in a while. The other thing people who complain about his positions seem to miss is that A) they're more left than any other mayoral candidate I've ever seen, and B) When/If he gets totally FUCKED by the Democrats come election time, It'll only confirm what people even farther left have been saying, and give them opportunities to pull people more left with them.

This is a strategic boon as far as I see it, win or loose.

The USAmerican population needs some small wins like this in order to break the spell we’re collectively under. The one that says mildly leftist policies are mythical pipe dreams. Some small victories have a chance to snowball as it’s proven that the government can actually provide for its people, if it chooses to.
