Mamdani entered his office on his first day on the job, and when he moved all that stacked up paperwork from past Mayoral Bums, he found a red button that said Something Good. He pressed the button, and Something Good happened. So he pressed it again. And again.

Any previous mayor could have pressed that button, but they just didn’t. Furthermore, there’s a button like that on EVERY politician’s desk. They could press that button at any time, but they just choose not to.

Mamdani is showing what happens when politicians choose to press that button. We have to convince a lot more politicians to start pressing that button, and it seems like they are starting to hear the message.
