Why is everyone so afraid of Mamdani if the mayor’s hands have historically always been tied?

The only thing I can remember Adams doing was providing trash cans. Even if Mamdani wants to provide free buses and rent freeze, it’s not like he can just wave a wand. And there’s already so much opposition to his proposals, that it just makes it seem so unlikely he’ll ever get these things done. And the federal government will be breathing down his neck every step of the way. Trump will likely make thwarting Mamdani one of his personal projects, then his first term (if he doesn’t get a second) will just be him fighting with the feds. It literally can not become a socialist city with those guardrails in place. It makes it seem like people just don’t like the vibe shift.
