    I sure do hope they (Mamdani and others) manage to write out a detailed and functioning plan before that. I am very worried that Trump will try to put “pressure” on Mamdani to prevent him from taking power, but such pressure would be less meaningful if others could just take his place. That would, paradoxically, make it less likely that trump does anything in the first place.

    I really hope we as a people can get past our Cold War / Red Scare phase and embrace more collectivism in our culture and government.
