New York’s Democratic primary winners: Letters

The Issue: Claire Valdez, Darializa Avila Chevalier and Brad Lander winning the Democratic primaries.

I am disgusted with the current state of our formerly great city (“Plot to end America,” Melanie Phillips, June 26).

Never in my wildest dreams did I think we’d have a rabid antisemitic mayor and a slate of similar bigots running for office — Claire Valdez, Darializa Avila Chevalier and Brad Lander.

Antisemitism runs rampant in the city with hardly a peep from our so-called leader.

My only solace is that I don’t live there anymore; I am happily retired in Florida.

Low voter turnout and indoctrinated Gen Z slackers have left us with three communists on the ballot in November.

As New Yorkers, we need to stop with identity politics and get common-sense candidates to run against these horrible choices.

Sen. Chuck Schumer, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries and Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand are so fearful of losing power.

Please remember in November: Trump is only here for a short time.

The comrades and their horrible policies will be there for long haul.

I find myself wondering how Chevalier — who, based on her policy positions and social media posts, loathes this country — will be able to take the required oath of office at her swearing in.

The oath states, in part, that a member of Congress must “support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic” and “take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion.”

This is a question The Post should ask her and her fellow DSA members.

After the results of the primaries, the only hope left for NYC and perhaps the entire state population is to elect Bruce Blakeman governor.

Hopefully, he will be able to rein in the evil that looms among the Democrats and their far-left leaning members.

A win for Gov. Hochul may fuel a bad future for the entire country, with California leaning in the same direction.

To Lander: No matter how often he calls you a “friend,” no matter how often he compliments you or flashes his smirk at you, Mamdani hates your guts.

He is a rabid Jew-hater, and you are a Jew.

You have no pride in your heritage and are ashamed of being Jewish.

You have sold your soul and that makes you evil.

I think it’s wrong for Chevalier to be a congresswoman when she has terrible disrespect toward the American flag.

She said she’d use our flag to wipe herself.

Men and women fought and died for that flag.

I served proudly in the US Navy, and I won’t condone an ignoramus like Chevalier continuing her attacks on our nation.

The victory of communist ideology in New York’s primary should sound a very loud klaxon all over the world, but all we hear from the party’s leaders is a peep.

Always anxious Jeffries and ponderous Schumer are unfit for the trials their party now faces.

Who will marshal common sense, gather normal Dems and cast the crazies out?

Time’s wasting, and so is our patience.

Mamdani’s forces came out in large numbers and left their mark.

You can be sure this group of pampered progressives attended some of the top-notch universities, and it was there where their indoctrination took hold.

To prove the point, Chevalier was one of those defiant participants during the Columbia University demonstrations.

The root of the problem are lefty faculties inculcating ideologies in the minds of young adults.

Just think how much of a coward you have to be to be Lander.

This Jew cozies up to people that not only hate Israelis, who are fighting for their lives against Middle Eastern terror groups, but hate all Jews.

There really is a special place in hell for him.
