Socialist Zohran Mamdani is so radical that even “Saturday Night Live” couldn’t resist an opportunity to mock his empty promises and attempts to appeal to the “white guilt” of New York’s gullible self-loathing liberals.
Portrayed by comedian Ramy Youssef, the actor, sporting Mamdani’s trademark creepy, vacant smile, spewed a list of pledges the NYC mayoral candidate frontrunner that would destroy the Big Apple.
Youssef’s Mamdani promised, “I want to be Mayor so I can deliver a better New York.”
“Free healthcare, affordable housing, free WiFi.”
“As Mayor, can I make that happen? I’m not sure yet. But together, we’re gonna find out…..that the answer is no.”
Watch:
Wow, can it be? Even SNL is suddenly waking up to the fact that Mamdani is a grifter extraordinaire!

The most brutal mocking, however, was directed at NYC’s liberal voters themselves.
After being asked to share a message to undecided voters, Mamdani turned on his best doe eyes and stared into the camera as a “heart” filter filled the screen.
“Hey girl,” he crooned.
“I know you got, uh, got a little white guilt for gentrifying that Spanish neighborhood, don’t you? Why don’t you vote for me?”
“You know, you feel a little less bad about that chicken and rice shop getting turned into a Sweetgreen,” he continued.
“So why don’t you hit me up at the ballot box, girl?”
Watch:
Comedian James Austin Johnson joined the debate to reprise his role as President Trump.
“We can pretend this election is about housing and taxes, but we all know it’s about me, right? Because I am going to be very involved, very hands-on…this guy knows about hands-on, right Cuomo?”
“Look at these candidates we got. Look at Curtis Sliwa. I love him but we gott do something about that ‘Emily in Paris’ looking hat.”
“And here we have the frontrunner Zohran (gabbled Mamdani).”
