Why does Ohio care about who's mayor in New York City? Do people realize that a city mayor is one or two levels under a state govenor?

exactly this - the GOP is sooooooooooo good at this that there isn’t single GOP politician who didn’t publicly go off against Zohran… can’t have these crazy ideas that people can have nice things :)

Red and swing states all voted overwhelmingly towards democrats tn though

in 2000? :)

I don't think so. Americans want populism, doesn't really matter who provides. If you can focus the people's hate away from minorities and unto billionaires before it is too late, you might just save your democracy.

And the retort should be "Who cares? New York City Mayors never get another job anyway."
