Newly elected Democratic primary nominee Zohran Mamdani is getting absolutely savaged by his own supporters after committing the ultimate sin: admitting Israel has a right to exist
The Moment Everything Went Sideways
Zohran Mamdani thought he won the hard part when he secured the Democratic primary nomination.
He was wrong.
Now he’s getting torn apart at his own campaign events by the very people who voted for him – all because he dared to say Israel has a right to exist.
In today’s Democratic Party, that apparently makes you a “Zionist” – which might as well be the political equivalent of leprosy among progressive voters.
When Your Own Base Turns on You
Picture this: You win your primary, you’re celebrating, planning your general election strategy… and then your own supporters start showing up to harass you at every event.
That’s exactly what’s happening to Mamdani right now.
The crime? Suggesting that Israel – you know, a country that actually exists – has a right to continue existing.
The punishment? Getting chewed out by angry progressives who think that’s basically war crimes.
The New Scarlet Letter: “Zionist”
In progressive circles, being called a “Zionist” is like being called a fascist, a war criminal, and a sellout all rolled into one toxic label.
And Mamdani just painted that target on his own back by stating what used to be basic foreign policy consensus: countries generally have a right to exist.
Welcome to 2025 Democratic politics, where acknowledging reality gets you canceled by your own team.
The Harassment Campaign Begins
Now Mamdani can’t show his face at campaign events without getting confronted by former supporters who feel “betrayed” by his moderate stance.
Typical scene:
- Mamdani tries to talk about local issues
- Angry voter interrupts: “How can you support genocide?!”
- Event derails into shouting match about Middle East policy
- Mamdani leaves looking like he got hit by a truck
This is his life now.
