Also worth repeating: Mamdani's greatest power isn't something just anyone can learn or emulate. He's got an entire PHILOSOPHY and MORAL CORE based on care over punishment that informs everything he says and does. Without that, the charisma means nothing.

This is absolutely Mamdani's not-so-secret secret power: he knows who he is and what he believes and he wants to help ALL of us. So you can't trip him up with a trick question; you can't get a fake note out of him. BECAUSE HE HAS NOTHING TO HIDE AND HE'S DONE THE READING AND HE'S HERE FOR US.
100 percent. I think he benefits from what most great orators benefit from: he knows himself—and more importantly, he talks to (and understands) what moves people. And, as far as I can tell, he believes what he’s saying.
