The Issue: Support for antisemitic New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani.
Zohran Mamdani has managed to insult multiple groups with long ties to New York City (“ ‘Zoh way he’s not a problem,’ ” July 10).
Most recently, Italians were insulted by the “candidate of all the people.”
This followed numerous insults against Israel and the Jewish community.
What hope does this guy offer for a united New York?
It is most disturbing that many Democratic elected officials are either endorsing him or reinterpreting his bigoted remarks.

New York City is getting ready to elect an antisemitic mayor while rabbis and Jewish politicians refuse to speak out.
If Mamdani is elected, this city will be a disgrace.
Meanwhile, Mayor Adams and candidates Andrew Cuomo and Curtis Sliwa are willing to sacrifice the city for their own egos rather than getting together and supporting one person to go against Mamdani.
None of these men deserve respect for allowing this city to fall into the abyss.
The Democratic Socialists have to be stopped; two of the others need to drop out.

As Carl Campanile points out, even Jewish Democrats are worried about a victory for this lowlife.
Recent polling indicates he has a 10-point lead over Cuomo and a higher lead over Adams.
It has to be possible that someone or some group could be put together to try to get Adams to drop out and support Cuomo.
He has no chance of winning, but his legacy could be that he saved our city by standing on the sidelines.
History will record it and New York City will forever be grateful.

It is both inconceivable and outrageous that any Jewish politician or community leader could have considered supporting Zohran Mamdani for even a second.
His primary victory should have sent shock waves and prompted condemnation by any self-respecting member of the Jewish political community.
But after this debacle has shaken rational New Yorkers to the quick, we have a substantial number of Jewish politicians either endorsing the mini-monster or, even worse, pleading with him to retract or explain just one of his many anti-Israel statements.

If Mamdani wins, New York City will descend into chaos with rising crime and antisemitism and eventually see an economic collapse — but New York’s pols will jump ship before then.
If you were hoping the city, state and federal politicians would find their backbones and join together to stop the catastrophe that will ensue if Mamdani wins the mayoralty, you’d be wrong.
I’d call them all cowards, but cowardice doesn’t quite do service to their perfidy.

Most nations would give mayoral candidate Zohran Mandani a one-way ticket to Siberia.
He is a Trojan Horse —a seemingly wonderful gift to New York City’s poor, but filled with hate and the chaos of the radical far-left.
Who funds such a candidate?

The fact that Mamdani could possibly be the next mayor of New York City is terrifying.
His antisemitism is outrageous, and he will act out and express it all around the city.
He will drive out all the large taxpayers and the city will end up in bankruptcy, a shell of what it was.
Residents, especially Jewish residents, will leave in flocks to Florida.

Every day we are given another example of why Mamdani should not be elected mayor. In addition to his pipe-dream plans and his extreme antisemitic and anti-American statements, he espouses division, not unity.
Imagine such an individual participating in the traditional parades or welcoming various heads of state whom he despises.
His election would be the result of voter ignorance and voter apathy.
Zohran is not good for New York City and certainly not good for America.
