Oh well, guess I have to vote for felon rapist pedophiles now.

This was the actual Tan suit argument for more people than I feel comfortable admitting are part of the human race.
Lost the chance to write "Madmani".
Oh fuck, not the dress code! The horror.
He took his shoes off, that's all that matters. Dress codes for pools should be "don't be naked"
americans get angry when you have a good time and act like a human, especially in a suit--and it's a tailored suit, not some off the rack, ill-fitting embarrassment from the men's warehouse.
but it's ok to shit in your suit on live TV. you can be feeble, and you can mumble , and your words can barely make sense, as long as you project the illusion of a better; gods don't jump in pools, they don't show emotion, definitely not in a suit.
one of the many contradictions of the labyrinthine american value system that only truly makes sense if you're a fucking idiot.
It's not American, it's corporate. No one who isn't suckling on boots actually cares about the "dress code" of jumping into a pool in a tailored suit.
If Trump jumped in a pool, it'd be other people shitting themsleves instead of Trump for once. Because no one expects him to still be able to jump. But then they'd be chortling to themselves on network about how he's so fun and free from the stuffy norms of established politicians.
It's not tricky, it's not some byzantine culture war. They just don't like Mamdani and what he represents politically, so they're saying anything he does is bad.
The fact that conservatives (regressives), who value strength, chose an almost dead, fat, pants-shitting, draft dodging coward as their idol speaks volumes about that ideology and how pathetic it truly is.

NY Post is constantly grasping for straws trying to find anything negative to say about him.
The NYPost has about as much credibility as "BAT BOY FOUND IN CAVE IN ARGENTINA".
Unfortunately, there's a lot of idiots out there that think a bat boy was found in a cave in Argentina.
If he doesn't go they would accuse him of being an elitist that doesn't enjoy what normal new-yorkers do
Let them. Should they ever find anything people will assume they are just crying wolf again and ignore them.
They are being irresponsible with the power of the press. this is a problem that solves itself.
This is a problem that should solve itself, and yet has delivered and elected Trump to office so..
Be patient. Trump is the punctuation mark for this whole thing.
Omg did he shake off in slow motion too and wink at the camera? Bro is so photogenic.
See, they actually believe that. That's why people on the right are generally miserable cunts. They don't believe in enjoyment of things outside of enjoying hating on minorities. So when they see others having fun they can't help but seethe.
One of the primary joys for their mindset is superiority. It confers a sense of satisfaction at the world being "right" and in order, like a twisted parody of the satisfaction you might feel if you see some things lining up perfectly. Of course, if joy is the privilege of the superior, it won't do for their inferiors to have any. That's just wrong in the same way some book being taller than the others in its series makes your shelf look wrong.
There is also a strong sense of propriety, possibly linked to that sense of superiority in a self-enforcing way: If your association with the superior class is contingent on a set of traits and activities associated with that class, stepping outside those bounds makes you lesser. Thus, enjoying things they consider inappropriate is the world being doubly wrong: not only are you acting wrong, you're having fun too!
And then there is the hierarchical idea that superior people naturally rise to positions of power. Conversely, that means someone in power has to share those superior traits. That includes a certain confidence, refinement, dignity... typically whiteness too, but there are some non-whites that fit all the other criteria of superiority, so they're the exception, "one of the good ones". Jumping into a pool like that, particularly while in a suit that is decidedly not pool-appropriate, is quite unrefined and undignified.
Combine those principles:
A "wrong" person in power (x1) doing something inappropriate (x2) and showing clear joy at it (x3) is one hell of a violation of their perceived natural order, a mockery of all that is right in their eyes.
It's easy to see how they would be pissed at that.
Of course, their premises are fucked up, and the world will never be quite "right" by their standards, so they'll never be conent. For instance, that supposed natural drift to higher positions should clearly carry them up too, superior as they are, yet somehow doesn't. They'll find someone to blame, point fingers, try anything that doesn't involve questioning their own superiority or the existence of such a drift.
Hence, they will never reach the place they believe should be theirs, and will never be satisfied. It's a deeply self-destructive mentality. I wholeheartedly advise against trying it.
Bigotry: not even once

This guys charisma is off the charts man. These images compel me to swim with him, like? It looks like a fuckin Fanta commercial.
I want to go back in time with Mamdani and be in the Vengaboys - We Like To Party and Len - Steal My Sunshine music videos with him.
I've spent decades thinking there was no way to amp up the fun in either of those videos, but I think Mamdani can do it.
Mamdani and DarkFutures Excellent Adventure
True, dude seems to be having fun the whole time while office. Gives me hope for this nation.
I imagine this is what being mayor must be like if you don't waste so much time talking to rich people.
This is almost as tragic and horrific as Obama's tan suit incident. It is a day that will live in infamy.
Honestly, it's starting to feel kinda tongue and cheek. All the photos they use are quite flattering. I think it's just rage bait engagement-mining both sides or malicious compliance.
At least he took his shoes off!
Jameson sometimes had valid concerns about things like collateral damage. NYPost on the other hand...
New York Post is the collateral damage.
That monster violated what? A dress code!! MONSTER.
Why can't he just violate little girls and boys like Donvict Drumpf?
Everyone else is also fully dressed so it's obviously like a thing to jump in the pool with all your clothes on. Which presumably they know about.

Let’s be honest, if he dressed in a bathing suit they’d be on his case for dressing inappropriately for his office.
