Communist New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani has struck fear in the hearts of New Yorkers with his radical plans to ruin the most famous city in America. Fortunately, the residents may be spared thanks to his incredible ineptitude.

A report has revealed that Mamdani made an embarrassing mistake while devising a plan to pay for one of his signature policies.

As TGP readers know, Mamdani has said he wants the Big Apple to have five government-owned grocery stores. He sees this as a solution to lowering the cost of food despite the fact that the idea has been tried before and failed miserably .

Mamdani, though, says that because the city is already subsidizing private grocery stores with $140 million, he can take just under half of the money ($60 million) and fulfill his dream.

“We will redirect city funds from corporate supermarkets to city-owned grocery stores whose mission is lower prices, not price-gouging,” Mamdani claims in one video.

But as the Washington Examiner’s Tim Carney explains, Mamdani has no clue what he is talking about. The money he plans to use to pay for his city-owned grocery stores does not exist.

Carney shared information from The city’s Economic Development Corporation webpage to make his point. The site notes grocery stores have invested $140 million of their own money thanks to a city program called FRESH (Food Retail Expansion to Support Health).

A grade schooler could read this information and conclude that these are private dollars.

But Mamdani read the graphic and concluded this was city funding. This means he is counting the $140 million in private investment as government spending.

So Mamdani literally misread the city’s webpage without bothering to research further.

What an idiot.
