A crowd gathered around mayoral frontrunner Zohran Mamdani on Saturday as he lay on his back struggling to bench-press 135 pounds at the annual Men’s Day in Brooklyn. He couldn’t do it.
Mayor Eric Adams derided him as “Mamscrawny” — but Mamdani’s fans didn’t care.
Weightlifting isn’t a requirement to serve as mayor.
I’m so glad politics is decided by important things like how buff the candidate is and whether or not they drink kombucha instead of pointless things like policy.
Love it.
just keep your opponent distracted with coming up with cheap shots that no one cares about so they forget to actually campaign at all
Oh I know, but it doesn’t make it any less of a pathetic farce.
unfit to lead
Weak Polling
Mamdani has a Fatal weakness: he’s going to DIE before the end of the century. Do you really want such a weakling as mayor?
Lmao he has like a totally standard body??
You don’t see this kind of shit thrown at anybody else, ridiculous…
We’re talking about the city that elected Bloomberg, I don’t think the voters care.
Decrepit undead bloodsucking vampire can be surprisingly strong though
When you’re loved by others, you have all the muscle you could ever need
How does he expect to win the Mayoral Wrestling Contest.
Dont worry felix will teach him some basic bjj
They really are just throwing everything they possibly can at him.
They’ll be talking about how he is an awful candidate because you can’t have a beer with him because he’s Muslim next, won’t they? And they’ll probably imply that he’ll make alcohol illegal if he wins the election too.
Ah, the Sadiq Khan strategy.
This whole spectacle reminds me why we shouldn’t treat bourgeois political theater too seriously. It’s all so pointless.
He has plenty of time to get up to 135 if he commits to a consistent training volume.
who fucking cares. besides we can just lend him Rosa’s mech suit (time travel tech is proving to be more difficult then a combat exoskeleton)
Twitter ass slander.
Take it from someone who hit 225 again, I don’t give a shit.
Marx failed to consider that you have to be 6’1 or taller
this is actually pretty funny. reads like the onion
Fucking clown show country.
That said, I am all for politics turning into a strong man competition. Large sons shall finally have their time in the spotlight!
retvrn to arthurian legend, except you’ll need to pull with your teeth a truck with [nation] painted on the side to be crowned president
