There was one bright spot in Tuesday's elections, believe it or not. In bright red Minneapolis the incumbent Democrat mayor Jacob Frey succeeding in getting reelected.
How can that be a bright spot? Because he was running against CAIR endorsed Democratic Socialist candidate Omar Fateh whose parents immigrated from Somalia. Speaking Somali while campaigning Fateh declared his primary loyalty to Somalia.
The Power Line guys, based in the Twin Cities, had this to say about the outcome.
To be clear, Jacob Frey has been a terrible mayor. But yesterday’s contest pitted a slow but inevitable decline (Frey) vs. a Mamdani-style immediate collapse for the state’s largest city (Fateh). Slow decline won!
Lesser of two evils is still a win, if not a huge one.
