Appearing Monday on Varney & Co., Forbes said he was surprised Mamdani had been elected and argued the mayor’s political views had been widely known before the election. “How in the world he got elected — well, he did,” Forbes said. He added that Mamdani’s “radicalism was out there” and said the events of the weekend show “how ill-fitted he is for the times we are in.”
