The reason Dems are doing this is clear.
If Mamdani wins they can go “we endorsed him, he won because of the backing of the party”
If Mamdani loses they can go “see, we told you that we need to pivot further right. We told you. We didn’t sabotage him, we endorsed him for goodness sake”
Withhold endorsement and throw mud in the water all the way up to the end then try to slap a last minute endorsement on there so they can absolve themselves of any blame and pretend like the “time to vote left is the primaries” like they won’t ratfuck you after you win the primary.

About fkn time. Not that Zohran needed his endorsement. Hakeem I imagine is covering his ass now but will do everything he can behind the scenes to oppose him.
-
too late bitch you take your $1.7M blood money and fuck off forever
-
You're not helping.
-
well to be fair to i have limited power, if I had more I'd happily help him fuck off in person.

What do you mean? It helped me

Exactly my thoughts.

No one should care who Democrats endorse. The fact that Jeffries waited this late makes him out to be another bandwagon liberal trying to hitch his horse to the guaranteed winner, as if he supported him all along

I said a month ago that last minute endorsements don't count, and the window closes in mid-October. I see no reason to change this. Jefferies can get bent.

My fellow Americans, our long national nightmare is over
-
You're late.

Once Zohran win is assured?

Bullying Works

Great! We need to unite to get the fascists the fuck out!
-
Did he send a strong worded letter?
-
Finally decided to bend the knee. What a loser.

About damn time

Sounds about right….

"Check where my people are going so that I might lead them there."
Exactly. This wasn't an endorsement, it was a concession.
That is a great expression. Is that a quote?
It’s used in The West Wing. Also https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexandre_Auguste_Ledru-Rollin suggests it’s not really something he said
I think it's one of those apocryphal quotes that gets misattributed to different people. Most commonly Ledru-Rollin, as Pumpkin Escobar mentioned.
