New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani blistered the attack against Iran, showing the entire country he has zero loyalty to the American people and our republic.
Sadly, he was far from the only one, as some Democrat hopefuls have taken the radical route rather than the moderate one.
Not to mention, AOC's repulsive response to the strike.
The field of potential candidates for the 2028 Democrat nomination has united in attacking Trump for taking out a notorious terrorist. This is General Soleimani all over again. When Trump took out the leader of the Iranian Army in January 2020, Democrats lost their minds, and they are doing the same thing after the death of Iran’s Supreme Leader.
Kamala Harris stated, "This is a dangerous and unnecessary gamble with American lives that also jeopardizes stability in the region and our standing in the world. What we are witnessing is not strength. It is recklessness dressed up as resolve."
Gavin Newsom responded to the attack, "It stems from weakness masquerading as strength. He lied to you. So reckless is the only way to describe this. He didn’t describe to the American people what the endgame is here. There wasn’t one. He manufactured it." He also claimed the strike was “illegal.”
Governor Josh Shapiro echoed a similar line, as “illegal” is clearly a Democrat talking point, as I have heard it used about two dozen times since the strike took place.
Not surprisingly, AOC followed suit, stating, "In moments of war, our Constitution is unambiguous: Congress authorizes war. The President does not.” Donald Trump did not declare war… this was a strategic strike, which he has the authority to conduct.
AOC’s statement further stated, “The American people are once again dragged into a war they did not want by a president who does not care about the long-term consequences of his actions. This war is unlawful. It is unnecessary. And it will be catastrophic.”
Trump put Iran on the clock to accept terms, and the nation declined to do so. Not only that, but Iranian officials were talking tough in the media, issuing threats.
Had Iran been negotiating in good faith, I truly believe Trump would have kept the talks going, but that did not appear to be the case. This strike was the result of that.
Zohran Mamdani is among those who I believe want to fundamentally change our country, and not for the better. He is among the current elected officials who I believe want to infiltrate this country from within and dramatically change its foundation.
To that point, after the strike, Mamdani stated, "Today’s military strikes on Iran — carried out by the United States and Israel — mark a catastrophic escalation in an illegal war of aggression. Bombing cities. Killing civilians. Opening a new theater of war. Americans do not want this. They do not want another war in pursuit of regime change."
Then he pandered to Iranians in the city, adding, "You are part of the fabric of this city — you are our neighbors, small business owners, students, artists, workers, and community leaders. You will be safe here."
Iranian American journalist Masih Alinejad, who was marked for death by the Supreme Leader, said that Mamdani’s comments don’t make her “feel safe,” adding that she could not believe he “sympathizes” with a regime that “killed more than 30,000 unarmed Iranians in less than 24 hours.”
Pictures were blowing up online of Iranians cheering in the streets of Iran and around the world. Women were celebrating their freedom from the strict rules of the regime. Everyone appears happy about this except American liberals. They have defended Hamas. Now they are defending Iran and its Supreme Leader. It seems quite clear to me that they hate this country. So what does it tell you that they continue to get re-elected to office on a regular basis?
