Dear Editor, 
 
At the same time Zohran Mamdani won the NYC mayoral race, AIPAC sponsored candidate Abigail Spamberger, a Democrat, won the gubernatorial race in Virginia after POTUS Trump refused to endorse her opponent, Republican Party nominee W. Earle-Sears, because he did not want to antagonize the Neo-Con and MAGA base in that swing state. So much of that base are fervent supporters of the State Of Israel and Earle-Sears is not. This gesture by POTUS Trump instead has angered so much of the MAGA base who actually do not care for the US unconditional support of Israel because of their “anti-Jewish” sentiments.
 
In addition, the fact that POTUS Trump supported a lifelong Democrat running as an Independent in the NYC race instead of the Republican Party candidate just to cater to Zionist interest has angered so many MAGAs who simply are tired of supporting Zionism. This portion of MAGA truly believes the illicit support of Zionism is hindering genuine MAGA objectives and goals.
 
In the USA, there is the caretaker government and then there is the BAR Attorney Officialdom that effectively rules the nation. The caretaker government effectively governs not with the consent of the governed but by the approval and pleasure of this “Ruling Class”. People need to always realize that they will always have more in common with each other than they will with the “Ruling Class” and the Plutocratic Class it props up.
 
Very Truly Yours,
Harsha Sankar
