Zohran Mamdani: Cuomo's become Donald Trump's 'puppet' and 'parrot' - Velshi - MSNBC
New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani is leaning into every aspect of his identity that sets him apart, even as powerful figures try to convince the country that diversity, equity, and inclusion are bad things.
After Andrew Cuomo said in a recent interview that diversity is our strength but “can also be a weakness,” Mamdani criticized his opponent for being “Donald Trump’s puppet” and “Donald Trump’s parrot.”
Vice President JD Vance also recently made remarks that’s receiving backlash for othering people who speak different languages. In response, Mamdani tells Ali Velshi, “The issue is not what language Americans are speaking at the dinner table, it's that they can't afford to put food on it.” - Aired on 11/02/2025.
