Jeffries is still not ready to approve the socialist Mamdani for the mayor of New York

The Democratic Manager of Hakeem Jeffries says that he is still not ready to approve the candidacy of Zohran Mamdani to become mayor of New York.

Jeffries made the statement at a press conference on Capitol Hill on Monday, telling journalists that he still weighed on the decision. Mamdani, a self -proclaimed socialist, has become a lightning rod for the attacks of the Republicans since he obtained the appointment of the Democratic Party.

“We agreed to reconcile with other members of the delegation (New York) and high-level community leaders in Brooklyn on his return to the country,” he said.

Friday, Mamdani met Jeffries in Brooklyn while the candidate seeks the mentions of the most eminent Democrats in New York.

“As was the case with each high -level approval decision that I have made in the past, I have a seated conversation, then I take it from there,” Jeffries told journalists before the meeting.

Mamdani has since left the country for a trip to Uganda, saying that he celebrates his marriage to a extended family there.

“And since you will undoubtedly read this trip to the New York Post, Inshallah (Arab for God Willing), on the first page, here are some of my humble suggestions for the headlines,” said Mamdani, swinging in the newspaper based in New York.
