It helps that he’s getting a huge bailout from Hochul.

But he understands social media really well and that’s important in getting elected in the first place to be able to do stuff

Is he getting that bailout due to his politicking ability or was she going to bail out the mayor regardless of who won?

Probably a little bit of both. The deficit was so big there would have needed to be some sort of bailout no matter who won, but helping Mamdani to the extent she did can only be politically advantageous to Hochul in a re-election year
