This is after he won the election, though

He has not won the election. He won the primary. He now will enter the mayoral race for the general election against the Republican and third party candidates.

He's got the 'real' election ahead of him, and given that it's likely there are two independents in the race, hard to say what that will be.

That said, being too cynical and just ignoring what he says as lying right off the bat isn't going to do anyone any favors. Reward the mindset, punish betrayal if it happens. A healthy skepticism is good, but not a completely defeatist outlook.

I thought he was a nominee? Article says that anyway. But still, there is zero chance that any of these guys will make any changes that are helping the ordinary people and hurts billionaries. Its a system where they have money and power and most of the citizens do not.

People are desperate for hope, and thats why his strategy is working. It is simular to Trumps own strategy also. They all come out and act as if they represent the ordinary people, and everyone buys it every time.

Trump is doing exactly what he promised.

He promised to lower the cost of groceries. That isn't going so well.

To continue the fear campaign and deportation based on skin color.. to hold up the status quo where industry is allowed to bypass all laws. To keep the poor man tricked into paying more taxes. Republican playbook as well as things written between the lines that are coming true. Project 2025..
