Why put Zohran in the same bag as trump? From what I can see NYC is running pretty well

Zohran is not a demagogue. He ran on a platform of fixing real problems that no one else was bothering to fix. And he’s actually doing things.

Democracy is failing because people you don't like are being democratically elected. The opposite would indeedn be failure.

> Populist demagogues from Trump to Zohran are getting elected.

That is quite the comparison. It also doesn't seem correct at all. What world are you living in where Zohran is a populist demagogue?

i like this comment.

> Trump to Zohran

Pointless, incredibly bad faith bothsideism. Zohran was the only one in the NYC mayoral race to believe in actual democracy. Cuomo's whole campaign was "elect me because the other guy is a muslim, and I won't do anything during my mandate, like the previous mayor". Zohran did actual campaigning on issues the electorate cared about, and so far has delivered on his promises.
