    You think he can successfully pull off the Jets chant?

      The only valid Mamdani criticism.

      I’m not a new Yorker. What chant is that, and why would he have trouble?

        It would be chanting the name of a local sports team. This is something mayor Parker of Philly has managed to fuck up, chanting E L G S E S instead of E A G L E S because she is dumb as a rock and drunk as a skunk

          That’s hilarious. What a thing to mess up publicly.

            She used to be an English teacher too! Alas, the two most left leaning candidates in our mayoral race split the vote and without ranked choice Parker managed to win 😭

              Perhaps they could have flipped a coin and gone mayor and vice mayor instead!

                That would have been nice. Maybe next time

        OP explained the Parker aspect of the joke, but as for the Jets, their fans chant “J-E-T-S JETS JETS JETS!” in a similar fashion to how Eagles fans chant “E-A-G-L-E-S EAGLES!”
