Real. I’m a conservative and naturally in major disagreement with Mr. Mamdani on certain issues yet there is no fiber of my being that thinks he should be barred from the ceremony.
If he didn’t show up to the ceremony as the mayor of NYC, can you IMAGINE the headlines Fox would run? And what Agent Orange would say about it?
The principle of holding office is lost on many. I’m not even a NY resident yet I respect that he is the mayor of that jurisdiction. When Biden was president, which I was NOT happy with, he was still my president. And the fact that his race/religion is a factor in his legitimacy being challenged is… against everything I stand for, and against everything those who claim to be conservatives are supposed to stand for.
