    Mark my words. Zohran will neuter himself the moment he gets in office. If not immediately, a year later.

      It is a curious case. Usually politicians start compromising on their campaign trail. Then their voters cope by saying that they need to do so to get elected. Then they get elected and compromise even more until you get a DNC ghoul.

      But Zohran has not made any real compromises.

      Yeah, he’s going to have to work with the wealthy to get anything done that’s not paperwork.

        Does he have to work with the wealthy to raise their taxes?

        What about putting caps on rent?

        Seems like he could do both of these without any backing from wealthy people.
