Democrats ALREADY REGRETTING Their Support for Zohran Mamdani…
The Socialist Winter: New York City’s Collapse Under Zoran Mamdani
It is February 2026, and the “Democratic Socialist” dream has officially collided with the frozen reality of the New York pavement. Zoran Mamdani, the man the progressive left promised would be the vanguard of a new America, has spent his first few weeks in office proving that ideological purity is a pathetic substitute for basic managerial competence. New York City isn’t just struggling; it is rotting in real-time, and the very Democrats who paved the way for his primary victory are now desperately trying to pretend they don’t know him.
The Cost of Compassion: 16 Dead
The most damning indictment of the Mamdani administration isn’t the tax hikes or the trash—it’s the body count. In a display of what he calls “humane” governance, Mamdani refused to break up homeless encampments during the January snowstorms, claiming it was “inhumane” to move people without providing permanent housing. The result of this performative empathy? Sixteen New Yorkers froze to death on the streets.

When you prioritize your socialist “principles” over the immediate survival of your citizens, you aren’t a leader; you’re a liability. Even his supposed allies, like Councilwoman Shahana Hanif, have been forced to publicly call out the administration’s failures as Brooklyn neighborhoods went days without heat due to a crumbling infrastructure the Mayor seems uninterested in fixing.
The Fiscal Cliff: A $12 Billion Deficit
Mamdani’s economic plan is a textbook example of socialist delusion. Facing a massive $12 billion budget deficit, his only solution is to “soak the rich” with corporate tax increases and wealth taxes. He fails to realize that in a global economy, capital has wings.
New York City’s tax base is already precarious. High-earning individuals and major corporations don’t stay in cities that treat them like ATMs to fund government-run grocery stores and free bus rides. They move to Florida, Texas, and Tennessee. When the wealthy leave, the tax revenue disappears, the deficit grows, and the working class is left holding the bag for the “free” services that no longer have a funding source.
The Democrat’s 2026 Nightmare
For the national Democratic Party, Zoran Mamdani is a political suicide bomb. As we approach the 2026 midterms, Republicans have already turned him into the face of the entire Democratic agenda. The NRCC has launched ads in 50 competitive districts with a simple message: “New York’s chaos is coming to your backyard.”
The establishment’s cowardice is on full display:
Hakeem Jeffries waited four months to endorse his fellow Brooklynite, only to immediately claim Mamdani “isn’t the future of the party.”
Chuck Schumer refused to say if he even voted for his party’s nominee on election day.
Jay Jacobs, the State Party Chairman, flat-out refused an endorsement, citing the toxicity of Mamdani’s anti-police rhetoric.
The Democratic Party is currently a house divided against itself—one half chasing the “excitement” of Bernie Sanders-style radicalism, and the other half terrified of losing moderate suburbanites who actually want the police to answer their calls and the trash to be picked up.
The Mirage of Affordability
Mamdani won by promising to solve the “kitchen table” issues of rent and child care. But his solutions are economic poison. Rent freezes don’t create housing; they stop maintenance and halt new construction. $30 minimum wages by 2030 will simply accelerate the replacement of human workers with AI and kiosks.

New York City is currently the world’s most expensive test case for an ideology that has failed everywhere it has been tried. Mamdani is a charismatic speaker and a talented organizer, but as the trash piles up and the lights stay off in Brooklyn, New Yorkers are learning the hard way that you can’t eat a speech, and you can’t heat a home with “solidarity.”
