Qasim Rashid, Esq.

The NYC Mayoral Primary was June 24 (95 days ago) & the General is Nov 4 (in 37 days). And Chuck Schumer & Hakeem Jeffries—the two Democratic Party leaders who should be leading by example—have still REFUSED to endorse the democratic nominee.

I don’t ever wanna hear them or any of their supporters utter “vote blue no matter who,” ever again. What indefensible cowardice and hypocrisy.

Thankfully, Zohran Mamdani continues to rise & the future looks bright.

I'm glad people are realizing that the Democratic Party are not our friends, that they are *not* looking out for us. They're looking out for the money, and that's all.

💯❕

this makes me absolutely fucking furious!
I had some very choice posts to that weak coward Hakeem Jeffries. Even Tim Miller called him out on this

We need to primary both those mf'ers. Schumer is done, & Jeffries is for sale

Surely we can find better New Yorkers than these 2

I mean, vote for them if they are the candidate against a #Repug but surely we can do better. Start fielding candidates💙

@QasimRashid Next time Schumer is up for reelection, I'm writing in Zohran Mamdani.

Hopefully he'll be too busy being Mayor of NY, and prepping for a Presidential run 😁

@QasimRashid He doesn't need them. That's what's crazy.

@QasimRashid One thing to check is whether Chuck Schumer & Hakeem Jeffries have ever endorsed a candidate for mayor. In Chuck Schumer's case, if he endorses a candidate for mayor for one city in New York state, he might get requests from candidates for all the other towns and cities in that state, which could become unmanageable.

@bzdev @QasimRashid Spoiler alert: Schumer endorsed Eric Adams for Mayor of NYC in the last election: https://www.nydailynews.com/2021/10/29/gov-hochul-sen-schumer-shower-love-on-eric-adams-ahead-of-nyc-mayoral-election/

Also, lol, these quotes have aged extremely well:

@Andres4NY @QasimRashid I didn't know that he endorsed Eric Adams. If he did, I'd hardly be surprised that he'd be "gun shy" (so to speak) about ever endorsing anyone else.

Any excuse for compromise with fascism Democrats like Schumer and Jeffries. I can almost guarantee they will avert a shutdown last minute by giving trump everything and getting literally nothing in return. There are Republican holdouts that have more backbone that Schumer and Jeffries.
