The New York Young Republican Club (NYYRC) has called on the federal government to strip Zohran Mamdani of his citizenship and deport him.

On Tuesday evening, Mamdani, a 33-year-old self-described democratic socialist, declared victory over Andrew Cuomo, former governor of the state of New York, in the Democratic primary for the 2025 New York mayoral election.

The outcome, one of the first major Democratic primaries since Donald Trump returned to office, is being considered as a barometer for the party’s potential recalibration nationally, at a time when it remains ideologically divided about its future.

    The national party better figure out quickly that the next election isn’t going to be

    “Blue no matter who”

    It’s going to be

    “More green than blue or else fuck you too!”

      As an outsider looking at American politics, “blue no matter who” is a propaganda to condition Americans citizens to always accept the lesser evil, and to not bother to try to lobby or pressure their own representatives to be actually be better.

        “Blue no matter who” doesn’t mean “vote for the second worst person”. What it means is anyone who has any shred of decency isn’t a republican anymore, and republicans cannot be allowed to win at any cost, or they will very quickly backslide civil rights and start a war in the Middle East.

        I think the Dems will back Mamdani, since he’s going to win the primary. There are a lot of naysayers about the Democrats who think otherwise, it will be interesting to watch the space in the next few weeks.

        Also, if the Republican pull his citizenship then I’m going to fucking riot.

          Dems are already backing Mamdani, he already won the primary and he is himself a part of the party. Even though Bill Clinton endorsed Cuomo, who served as HUD Secretary under Clinton, he had this to say about Mamdani’s victory:

          “Congratulations @ZohranKMamdani on your victory in yesterday’s primary election and a well-run campaign. I’m wishing you much success in November and beyond as you work to bring New Yorkers together to tackle the city’s challenges and shape a stronger, fairer future”

          ~Bill Clinton, the 42nd president of the United States of America

      RNC promotes greens through the Badger Values PAC, the European Greens parties asked the US Greens to step down in the last election because if Harris lost then Republicans win. Can you guess how many Greens are in the US congress today? ZERO. Can you guess which party Mamdani is in? DNC.
