Lawler referenced Mark Halperin's claims that Jeffries believes Mamdani's potential mayorship could prevent Democrats from regaining House control. Lawler criticized the prospect of Mamdani implementing a socialist agenda, calling it insanity and a disaster for suburban districts. Jeffries has not endorsed Mamdani, despite ongoing discussions between them.
Hudson Valley Rep. Mike Lawler believes that House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries and other top New York Democrats are 'freaking out' over socialist Zohran Mamdani's victory in the mayoral primary.
Lawler said he believes reporting from journalist Mark Halperin that Jeffries quietly feels that if Mamdani becomes mayor, Democrats won't be able to take back control of the House.
Lawler gloated over the predicament mainstream Democrats face, calling it 'absolute insanity' to support someone with Mamdani's proposals.
He described Mamdani's platform, which includes seizing production means and banning private property ownership, as a 'disaster in the suburban districts like mine.'
