I think, with Mamdani, Dems and Republicans are convening behind closed doors and figuring out what administrative hurdles they can throw up in the five biggest American cities in order to make it impossible for another Mamdani to come along.
That's what they did in the 90's when Ross Perot got dangerously close to being elected president. It's why a 3rd party candidate can't get in on the debates, and why qualifying for the ballot is so hard, etc.
