COLLECTING POLITICAL SCALPS

And what is a political scalp?
Over the years I have spoken about politics to seemingly rational people on the other side of the fence now and then. People who I could never really get through to. But it does happen now and then when they are brave enough to adjust and change their perspective based on evidence that they themselves have come to see. They come to me and admit where they have arrived ideologically concerning the politics of the day in America. It happens!
I have a female customer / friend, a very nice hard-working tax paying American person who is politically active who usually is a steadfast, reliable Democrat voter in New York City. This is what she just told me concerning the coming NYC mayoral election in November.
Now to be clear, she is a hard NO on Trump, for now :)
She unsolicited by me volunteered that in the NYC mayoral election she will not be voting for the Democrat party, Democrat / Socialist primary winner, Zohran Mamdani. The Democrat party in NYC and many other cities in America and in Washington are controlled and allied by todays radical "progressive" Marxists. Haters of the Constitution and Capitalism.
She shares with me: "I have some Democrat friends that when I talk to them about their Democrat party politics, they all seem to be very crazy.". "They really believe all of this crazy stuff that you hear."
Really! And that is exactly what I have been attempting to gently get her and many others to see. I consider her as one of my political scalps. I have several nailed on my wall. Their political blood running down in front or my desk.
You know, a scalp, that is what the "peace-loving" native Americans have been doing to each other for thousands of years as a symbol of instilling fear, violence and domination in the hearts of their enemies before "you know who" arrived.

She continues: "You should hear them and what they say that they actually believe, it is so crazy that I cannot believe what I am hearing from them." Well, they are indoctrinated and teached to self-hate, hating America and they are looking to "Destroy the Patriarchy". They are essentially Communists, what else would you expect? Oh, they do not CALL themselves Communists, but that is exactly what they are.
As an example: Who talks like this? "Whether it is seizing the means of production". Right out of Marx's Communist Manifesto: https://youtu.be/WAWmaC-4vAY?si=obYuvw1KquoCmrF9 1 min. 36. sec.
My rule is that if you talk like a Communist, I tend to believe that you are a Communist. (The means of production means your private property and businesses).
My point here is that there are still rational American Democrats who vote that are seeing things in politics in a very different light and more of a rational manner.
And who will she be voting for in the NYC mayoral election? The "INDEPENDENT" candidate, Andrew Cuomo. Andrew Cuomo being among the worst of the worst as far as manipulative and self-serving, egomaniacal, self-stroking, self-important politics goes. Andrew Cuomo will say and do anything in order to prevail and fulfill his now very silly dream of recovering his credibility and becoming the president of the United States to fulfill his political royalty aspirations. The radical Left within his own party took care of that fantasy while they were setting up for Mamdani and other still incubating Leftists.
And that, whether Cuomo wins the mayor's office in NYC or not will NEVER happen IMO.
I consider that progress. Progress one mind at a time.
