Zohran Mamdani, a Democratic mayoral candidate in New York City, is traveling to Uganda for a family trip. He shared criticism received on social media, with some urging him to go back to Uganda. In a video, Mamdani acknowledged the critics and expressed he would indeed be going to Uganda for a personal celebration. He humorously suggested headlines for potential media coverage of his trip, indicating he intends to return to New York after the visit.
Being a politician means listening, not just to your supporters, but your critics too. Some of these critics... have been giving me consistent advice.
Zohran, go back to Uganda where you come from and belong. Another said: Loser. Go back to Africa.
I hear you, and I agree. I'm going back to Uganda... to celebrate Rama and I's marriage with our family and friends.
I will be coming back. Mamdani ended the video by pitching several humble suggestions for headlines to The New York Post.
