John King on Mamdani Amid America 250 Speech: He Has the Moment Right Now, an Ascendant Voice in the Dem Party, Whether You Like It or Not

EXCERPT:

KING: “I think, whatever you think of him, there‘s a lot of ambition in politics. He has ambition right now. He has a moment right now. He is an ascendant voice in the Democratic Party. Whether you like it or not, we should debate about that. He’s obviously not a fan of the democratic socialists. She might have a different opinion. My job is to study and watch it. What I see when I see that, and in the conversation about President Trump, is something that I think that we could desperately use, but we have horribly lost, which is the ability to take a timeout from all of this and say, this is July 4th. Can we just be Americans for 72 hours? Is that too much to ask? It apparently is.”
