"Fox News host Emily Compagno went off on Zohran Mamdani and the sedated New Yorkers who voted for him, with Compagno saying the next mayor of New York City is not only a communist and an anti-semite but also a chameleon who said and did whatever he needed to in order to win. Compagno's all guns blazing rant was on Wednesday afternoon's episode of Outnumbered."
"Of course, he's going to quote Eugene Debs out of the gate. Of course, he's going to start shouting out of the gate, Compagno said. Because what we have seen over his campaign was a chameleon. We have anecdotal people who went to college with him that said, Yeah, he was a drinking bro.' He did whatever it was to be popular. And now his insides are coming out."
Zohran Mamdani faced accusations of being a communist, antisemitic, and an opportunistic chameleon who changed behavior to secure votes. Critics claimed his campaign exploited TikTok and other social media to generate viral appeal and labeled his supporters as sedated and seduced by clickbait. Observers pointed to his victory speech quoting Eugene Debs as evidence of radical politics. Critics highlighted personal details such as a lack of traditional employment, attendance at a royal wedding in Uganda, and residence in a Chelsea multi-million-dollar apartment. Campaign proposals included rent freezes, city-owned grocery stores, and free bus rides.
