So, what MAGA and it's enablers really did not like about the speech was two things, that Mamdani spoke it, and that it was really great.

Being a Muslim from Africa would be bad enough, but the fact that he is also a (Democratic) Socialist and progressive and popular makes it so much worse, and being that Trump is still sensitive about being hated in his home town (for most of his life) does not help.

Trump works hard at making everything about himself, about trying to take credit for everything, putting his name on everything... And here Mamadani gave a great inspirational speech, not about himself, and that just makes Trump look small in comparison.

So, instead of either admitting it was a 'good speech' or even just ignoring it, they felt they had to try and tear it down, tearing down NYC, try to negate any positive feelings associated with anything not Trump related...

As you said, shows us so much about them. The stupid part is it just encourages more people to watch the speech.

Wouldn't it be funny if no one from that team accepted the invitation?🤣🤣🤣 oh, I hope🤣🤣🤣

You accidentally replied to my post. But I agree all the same. Especially considering their only loss was when he showed up.

And fell asleep! How could anyone miss any part of that exciting Basketball game? The sickest part was the owner Dolan & his 17 or 18 yo granddaughter closed their eyes so he wouldn’t look soo bad especially after they booed him when they put the camera on him during the Anthem. They claim he never sleeps at night bc he works hard🤣🤣🤣 when he doesn’t start the day until noon but usually naps at meetings with everybody there including news cameras.😳

Thanks Mike. I watched this and the festivities in NY. It was so great. I understand why NY loves him so much. If we had a man like this as governor of each state, we would see progress FOR the people. FOX etc. all seem to forget that NYC has hated trump going back to the 80's. I wish the team would not go to the WH. Especially considering what trump's regime has done to African Americans i.e. taking away so many of their rights.

We need a mayor like Zohran in Cleveland.

Nellis, I can tell you EXACTLY why trump is so mad about Mamdani’s speech. It’s because Mamdani is a true Knicks fan and NYC is a true Mamdani fan. It’s the mutual relationship that trump always craved with NY, but never had/deserved.

Trump was convicted of felony fraud IN NY! Now he is desperate to be a part of the Knicks win. LOL! Will Vanilla Ice be shaking hands as Trump smiles for the camera. New York is Mamdani, Trump is Putin in a diaper! How about a photo op at the Reflecting Pool?

Mike, I really value your shows because you explain the politics and incentives behind current events.

Mamdani is a beacon of hope for all the US.

Thanks for showing this clip!
