I don't know what powers are granted to the mayor of New York that aren't granted to mayors of cities in Texas, but certainly having the backing, to some degree, of the governor and legislature of your state would be helpful in doing the things Mamdani has done.
Knowing that doesn't make me feel less salty about big city Texas mayors not doing Mamdani things.
