He'll still toss money Democrats way, but these days it's more to hedge things than an actual belief in Democratic ideals.

He was a solid believer in the Genocide Joe bullshit that the Russians cooked up to convince Palestine supporters to put Trump back into office.

500k down the toilet with Mamdrani beating out Cuomo. He's since swapped his support over to Adams, and has been pushing for Cuomo to not run third party and for Sliwa to not run at all. A push in certain MAGA circles to deport Mamdani would fit with his efforts to play kingmaker in this election.
