A reminder, one of Mamdani’s first major public appearances since being elected might be at the Veterans Day parade today. And it would be a chance to see if he can be a unifier on any level.

Veterans Day is next week. And most Americans aren’t tracking.
But one of Mamdani’s first major public appearances since being elected might be at the parade. Which is the largest Vets Day parade in America. It’s also always soon after Election Day.
