New York City's socialist Mayor Zohran Mamdani is facing backlash after criticizing a famous quote from former President Ronald Reagan about the dangers of big government, which some have labeled as 'deranged Marxist' rhetoric. The criticism stems from a speech where Mamdani tore apart a 1987 quote by Reagan warning that the government was taking over too many areas of American life.
