Andrew Cuomo recently made some comments about Zohran Mamdani that shook up people on the left. He basically suggested that Mamdani would celebrate another 9/11.
The Gateway Pundit covered the story and you can read all about it here.
The topic came up on CNN at one point and Scott Jennings, the lone conservative voice on the network, stunned his co-panelists by offering a logical defense of Cuomo’s comments.
Transcript via Overton News on Twitter/X:
“In this particular case, I think he was making two points, actually. One is, if you did, God forbid, have a massive emergency like that, would you really want someone in the mayor’s seat who has never had a job, never run anything, certainly never run at this level?”
“Number two, it is true that Mamdani was taking a picture with an unindicted coconspirator from the World Trade Center bombing the other day and called him a ‘pillar of the community.’”
“Cuomo didn’t make him take that picture. Mamdani took that picture and seems to be pretty proud of it.”
“That’s a legitimate thing to debate, but I think in this case of the radio show, the core issue was Mamdani literally has no experience.”
“And if you had a 9/11-scale event, would you want somebody who can’t prove that they can do anything in the chair?”
Then Abby Phillip jumped in: “Is it fair to say that he would ‘cheer on’ 9/11?”
Jennings fired back: “He’s taking pictures with unindicted coconspirators from the World Trade Center bombing!”
Phillip tried again: “But I mean, are you willing to say that you really think that he would cheer on 9/11?”
Jennings doubled down: “He’s taking pictures with unindicted coconspirators from the World Trade Center bombing!”

The CNN panel melted down over Cuomo’s comments suggesting Zohran Mamdani wasn’t qualified to handle a 9/11-style attack.
That’s when @ScottJenningsKY entered the chat…and dismantled the entire narrative.

It’s always amazing to watch Jennings school his colleagues on CNN.
It’s asinine that Scott has to even explain this. God bless him for going into the lunatic den where reality isn’t welcome.

Scott: “He’s taking pictures with WTC terrorists”

Part of the problem here is that New York City is full of young leftists who have no memory of 9/11. Public schools certainly haven’t helped on this issue. Not enough Americans know our country’s own history.
