Mamdani’s Rise and Its Consequences - with Reihan Salam

The New York City mayoral election will conclude this Tuesday, November 4th. The front-runner, 34-year old Zohran Mamdani, is a democratic socialist and a staunch anti-Zionist who is already being hailed as the future of the Democratic Party.

Joining us to discuss the New York City mayoral election – and its implications both nationally and globally – is Reihan Salam. Reihan is the president of the Manhattan Institute, a think tank that conducts policy research focused on urban and domestic affairs. Reihan previously served as the executive editor of The National Review. He has written for various outlets, including the Wall Street Journal, The Free Press, and VICE.
