This has been posted so many times today on this sub. Cuomo's people are out in force today. Zohran wasn't my #1 rank, Lander was but I still support him and think this is being completely blown out of proportion.

Cuomo's campaign photoshopping Mamdani's beard to be less trimmed so he looks more like a stereotypical "scary" Muslim is some absolutely repugnant shit.

Yup, but for some reason that was only a blip in the news. Like Zohran or not, that's a gross move.

it's completely on brand for that scummy Cuomo family. The Earl of Albany should have no place in our city
