New York is just the tip of the iceberg. It's not isolated to America's largest city. It's other cities as well. Look at Seattle where the leading candidate for mayor is an open socialist.

Amazingly, the media is criticizing Republicans for fixating on Maudani. I read some of that yesterday. (06:46–06:53)
