Here’s something I never thought I’d see, since Harlem at least used to be a 90% blue, Democrat communist shithole. But things are changing at least in some parts of New York, and Harlem is included. You probably remember bodega owner Jose Alva, who was attacked by a criminal thug and tried to defend himself. Fat Alvin Bragg tried to charge alba, but was forced to stop after huge backlash from the Harlem community and others.
Trump is talking about flipping New York state to the Republican column this year. I have my doubts, but something is change, at least in some parts of New York.
Hearing “We love Trump” chants in Harlem is really something else 🇺🇸

Donald Trump left his criminal trial on Tuesday and visited a bodega worker cleared of murder for stabbing an ex-con to death in self-defense in his Manhattan store.
The former president headed to Hamilton Heights to speak to Jose Alba, who knifed Austin Simon to death in July 2022, when he jumped the counter in his store.
Alba’s case sparked widespread scrutiny across New York City, until charges against him were dropped in July by Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg, who has become a frequent target of Trump’s attacks on the campaign trail.
