Pollster Mark Penn, a longtime adviser to the Clintons, on Wednesday described Zohran Mamdani’s victory in the New York City Democratic mayoral primary as a “911 moment” for the party.
In an interview on Fox News’s “America’s Newsroom,” the chairman of The Harris Poll said those who don’t want to see Mamdani win in November should target him both for his refusal to condemn calls to “globalize the intifada” and for his far-left economic policies.
“Look, this is a 911 moment for the Democratic Party, in the sense that he’s an antisemitic socialist,” Penn said, when asked which angle would be more effective to use against him.
“I think you have to throw both of those things at him because he has really not disavowed the global intifada. He has not really disavowed his comments that we should seize the means of production,” Penn continued.
“He is perhaps the most extreme major candidate ever to win such a major office,” he added.
Curious, isn’t it? I even hear people say “call nine eleven” aloud when speaking about the emergency number. The original pronunciation has been erased.
If I had schizophrenia I would definitely be weaving something about that being the real goal of 9/11 from the start.
I remember people wondering on that day whether the “terrorists” chose the date on purpose.
Don’t think that’s self-referential enough for schizophrenia, which is actually pretty different from your usual conspiracy-brained nonsense.
(I don’t know why I’m commenting on this.)
