“He (Mamdani) can’t just say, ‘these are tweets.’ These are so much more than tweets. The tweets are bad enough. It’s the votes and the positions he’s taken as assemblyman, and it is the platform, which he has run on in the mayoral primary. He ran on defunding the police. This was a policy he embraced. Now he wants to run away from this. New Yorkers are smart. They see through this, and you’re even seeing this is not just Republicans, not just independents, but common sense Democrat voters as well.
They do not want a mayor who is defunding the police, and you know who has been silent and refused to condemn Zohran Mamdani, Kathy Hochul, the worst governor in America, the weakest governor in America. She was asked yesterday on national TV. What was her response to me calling out Mamdani’s tweets? She said, ‘Oh, they were just tweets.’ And tried to brush them aside
The correct response for the governor of New York would be, ‘We strongly support the NYPD. We strongly support these brave men and women who put their lives on the line every single day that have led to these horrific tragedies.’ Instead, what does she say? She brushes it under the rug. She owns Commie Mamdani and his pro-defund the police platform." |
