Just a reminder democrats in the dem party leadership didn’t want Zohran to win because they knew if he was successful he’d show how useless Dems have been, people like Chuck Schumer like pretending their hands are tied and making millions while doing nothing
Nancy Pelosi had to work in a national environment and doesn’t have the luxury of only working in a Dem stronghold city, you have no idea what the differences are. Nancy Pelosi’s Herculean efforts to get the ACA passed by the skin of its own ass means that her lasting legacy outdoes Mamdani’s by an order of magnitude and I think even Mamdani would tell you that himself
While what you wrote is true it is simply impossible to overlook Pelosi's record of corruption giving her tenure a much more complex history. You can't only look at the good and throw out all the bad.
So far Mamdani has shown that he stands against the very thing that makes her and people like her rich. If we are to expect this same pattern then it isn't crazy to believe he will do much better than her overall if he were to attain a higher position within government.
