Drink a Beer, Shed a Tear

  
        Drink a beer, shed a tear, tremble in fear
        For the good ‘ole US of A, my dear

            Will Mamdani save us all
            Or consign us to free fall

        Lenin and Stalin both ready to cheer

Lots of trouble could be coming to New York. The feds can't have this. If they find Mamdani has broken some laws, and pursue the issue as should be done, Marxist will cause riots in the city. Stay tuned. I've seen a Liberal here, on Soup, praising his victory. Insane. No Kings Nonsense up the Kazoo. The greater population is not buying it. Yeah, record turn-out for voting...just like Biden got 82,000,000 votes. Give common sense a break.

Hope all hell breaks loose in NYC. It'd serve the dummies who elected Mamdani right.

NYC - Saw NYC off of the Eastern Seaboard, and America will calm down.

Well said, Gershon. I tremble in fear for our kids and the nation. I feel the 30 years I spent in the AF defending common sense and democracy was in vain. The gullible people who voted for this guy and others of his ilk should move to Cuba & other places where socialism has led people to destruction. Ergo!

You've got it, Robert. Give 'em a one-way ticket to Venezuela. Thanks, Gershon

A radical Muslim marxist western Judeo-Christian hater elected mayor of NYC. Boy New Yorkers are not only spectacularly dumb but have very short memories.

I admit to taking a little perverse pleasure at watching NYC self-destruct.
