Not too terribly long ago, New York Democrat Adriano Espaillat endorsed Zohran Mamdani for New York City Mayor. Because hindsight is 20/20, we can now say that was a mistake that ended Espaillat's political career.

The lesson here is that Democratic Socialists will sell you out and destroy you, no matter how loyal you may be.
The lesson: Never trust a communist.

Impossible!
The dirty little secret here is that they were never allies. The commies plan to use the Democratic Party to gain power, then they'll line the Democrats up against the wall just like the rest of us.
There is.
