1. Many governments require coalitions in order to take control of the institution, you've seen it around the world. You may have missed that aspect in the Democrat Power: they have won due to large constituencies that don't always agree. These are the aspects that general make up the party: liberals, progressives, socialists, communists, radicals, anarchists.
2. The communist/socialist publication, Jacobin.com., (read as "The Daily Worker") made clear the real battle going on in the Democrat Party, and it isn't MAGA. Control is being fought for between the radical Left and the Establishment Left.
3. "The more-or-less explicit Trump–Cuomo alliance also represents a heightening of tensions that have now been roiling the Democratic Party for nearly a decade. A progressive and democratic socialist wing — represented by Bernie Sanders, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and now Mamdani — has been attempting to capture youthful energy and disaffected voters by pushing the party in an anti-corporate, economic populist direction.
4. This effort has of course been fiercely resisted by the party’s corporate and
ultrarich donors and by establishment Democrats like Cuomo and
the Clintons. This factional battle also explains why leading New York Democrats, including Gov. Kathy Hochul and congressional party leaders Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries, have so far refused to back Mamdani despite his decisive primary victory.
5. That Cuomo is making common cause with Trump to stop Mamdani will not be a big surprise to many on the Left, who have long suspected that quite a few centrist Democrats (and the corporate interests they serve) would prefer MAGA to socialism. It may yet scandalize many ordinary Democratic voters though — and it raises the question of whether and how a house so divided against itself can stand."
Donald Trump has offered Eric Adams a job in his administration, apparently to convince him to drop out of New York’s mayoral race. It’s now official and out in the open: Andrew Cuomo is allying with Trump to beat Zohran Mamdani.

As is true in every political decision, one chooses that which is closest to one's values. Right vs Left? Communist vs capitalist? American vs foreign ideology?
And it is true today within the Democrat Party war.
