Josh Shapiro: Mamdani must check ‘blatantly antisemitic’ rhetoric among supporters
[IsraelTimes] One of the most prominent Jewish politicians in the United States said Zohran Mamdani, New York’s Democratic mayoral nominee, should curb “blatantly antisemitic” language among his supporters.

Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro is among the establishment Democrats who have hesitated to embrace Mamdani, a democratic socialist and vocal critic of Israel. Mamdani also has yet to win the endorsements of Jewish Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, though both congratulated him on his primary win.

In an interview with Jewish Insider, Shapiro said Mamdani’s campaign “left open far too much space for extremists to either use his words or for him to not condemn the words of extremists that said some blatantly antisemitic things.”
At least he is being more or less honest. Honestly hateful. And the voters will have a clear choice: Jew-hate and failed socialism, or something better. We’ll see what they choose; but whichever it is, New York City will deserve the outcome.

#1 Why on earth would Mamdani do that? It is a big part of his appeal. Juice-hatin' and bad economics are essential to his brand. A bit disappointing in the 21st century, especially here in America, but I guess the world has a lot of tribal inertia.
