Republicans had no chance in hell to win NY. They were not even seriously trying, otherwise they would not nominate Zeldin.

To say that they were pushing crimes news to win votes is backwards. This is not a media feat.

It’s an incompetence feat by our NY state politicians ever since we acquired a super-majority control.

Crimes have been an increasing issue, and now the republicans are capitalizing on it. Can’t blame them for that.

It was obvious for everyone to see once Adams was elected that people care about safety.

But our fake-progressives have been trying to ignore the reality. Trying to blame the media is just another form of trying to avoid the reality.

On car deaths, NYC had fewer than 200 this year so far. Murders were twice as much.

But people in NYC are not worried about dying in a car accident nor being murdered. There’s a lot more violence than doesn’t involve someone dying.
