Frost, a young socialist, advocates for granting full citizenship rights to all illegal immigrants immediately—an idea that confronts legal realities. Mandami, a Bronx assemblyman running for New York City mayor, openly describes himself as a communist and has made inflammatory statements, including claims of threats against his safety and vows to defund the NYPD, while simultaneously hiring private security.
