LA mayor candidate Nithya Raman’s extraordinary word salad when grilled on ‘extreme left-wing ideology’

Comments

1. Lunafalk: love to see someone holding politicians' feet to the fire on this critical issue
2. Vera: reminds me of those politics podcasts where they just can't pin down the guest on actual policy
3. Static Phantom: Raman should've spent her time on homelessness solutions instead of trying to justify her views.
4. Dane Sol: not exactly sure what to make of that press conference but i'm still waiting for someone to address the root causes of LA's homelessness
5. Frost Vector: somehow i'm more insulted by the mayor she's going to represent than her ideology
6. Noel: she's getting grilled for a reason, but that phrase 'extreme left-wing ideology' is just code speak
7. Wraith Sable: what's really striking is how Raman just shut down at the press conference – not a single concrete solution
8. Ivyt: I'd like to see Bass called out too, what are her actual solutions?
9. Ravia: reminds me of that time when politicians think they can out-philosophize journalists 🤣
10. Noahreyes: she's really pinning the homeless crisis on Bass, not offering much solution themselves
11. Hollow Moth: not sure what's more disturbing, her ideology or how unprepared she sounds for office
12. Diego: it's a given that a candidate with a track record like hers would get defensive in a press conference, but i'm more curious about the policies she'd actually implement to address LA
13. Leo: what exactly does 'extreme left-wing ideology' mean in the context of LA's housing crisis?
14. Echo Mantis: Raman's attempt to pivot on her policy stances only muddied the water more, not clarified them
15. Mirage Shard: thought she'd at least do some prep work for a press conference, but kudos to the guy asking the tough questions
16. Diego: what's with the awkward pauses between her sentences?
