No.
He let the robots cheat...driving Mamdani’s fake social media engagement sky high, which the media turned into fake news that Mamdani was popular, liked, and a genius of a political leader driving a vast grassroots explosion of excitement for a true change agent.
Bot farms out of Pakistan and India flooded X with random promotion of Mamdani coming from fake accounts...suddenly ballooning into the tens and hundreds of thousands. This is not organic engagement by real New Yorkers, but manufactured hype driven by enemy foreign code-writers rigging a US election.
The New York Post is tracking the evidence:
According to analytics compiled from Mamdani’s social media accounts, reviewed by The Post, between June 1 and July 1, Mamdani’s Instagram followers jumped from 213,000 to nearly 3 million — a 1,295% surge — while TikTok grew more than 1,000%.
Was there cheating at the voting booth? It would have been unnecessary. Real immigrants came out to vote for the "popular Muslim" candidate; frustrated, exasperated, depressed New Yorkers stayed home and started packing for a move to Texas. Or Florida.

Excerpt:
"We have let things rot for so long that, at this point, relying primarily on force to restore order would require a degree of violence far greater than what people realize and what is politically feasible.
It's possible to contain a riot using only moderate force when the number of police officers is high relative to the number of rioters, but when riots are so widespread and involve so many people because you have allowed this kind of things to happen for so long, that's just not possible and you have to use extreme violence to make up for the lack of manpower.
I know people on the Internet will say that it doesn't matter and that we should just do it, but the reality is that most of the people in charge are not prepared to use that kind of force and neither would most ordinary people if they saw ...
Even Marine Le Pen’s recent statements track this line: personal Islamic practice is compatible with the Republic; replacing French law with Sharia is not. French Muslims who are simply citizens practicing their "religious faith" “have no reason to worry” about a Le Pen election victory.
But can one be a practicing Muslim without demanding and practicing Sharia?
