Story by Stephen Neukam Axios
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) on Friday said GOP calls to deport New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani are "disgusting."
Why it matters: The Democratic establishment is in a meltdown over Mamdani being the party's nominee for New York City mayor, but its leadership is backing him up against GOP attacks.
The big picture: Schumer stopped short of endorsing Mamdani, a democratic socialist, when asked at the press conference.
- Schumer said he spoke with Mamdani and would meet with him in the coming days, but did not answer whether he planned to endorse him.
- "He ran an impressive campaign that connected with New Yorkers about affordability, fairness, and opportunity," Schumer posted on X after Mamdani's victory in the Democratic primary this week.
Schumer is groveling to the Radical Left of his Party.

The Dem voter base is so far left that they are even to the left of Schumer.
Schumer is desperate.
