that argument holds no water for complete self-owns like this one. It has no bearing on the race or the job he wants to do or the policies he promised. He either truly believes this shit or someone (the democrats) has a gun pointed at him or his family.
I mean it’s probably just a cynical ploy to win votes from Cuban and Venezuelan immigrants to NYC, no position he has ever held nor the position he is running for has any influence in foreign policy
it’s a cynical ploy with dangerous ripple effects though. if Bernie Dems like Zohran are what the average working person thinks of when they think “socialism,” then their vision of socialism (and their potential participation in it) is one where imperialism continues to operate unabated. he also didn’t need to do this whatsoever, even from a cowardly electoral optics perspective - he’s on track to win basically no matter what.
extra grotesque when you consider the very real currently ongoing escalations toward Venezuela from the Trump admin and the brutality that could lead to for their people. there’s no justifying this whatsoever.
yeah i can’t imagine the polling or demographics work out where “i’m running for mayor” isn’t the best answer to any question about foreign countries or even other US states
