Mamdani Gets Nailed With New Nickname After Blistering Report About How 'Thin-Skinned' He Is

That permanent smile on the face of New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani during interviews always looks like it's pasted on. Perhaps he thinks that if he's smiling, you won't look too closely at the problematic things he's saying and doing. Unfortunately, we're still seeing it all.

Now people have dished to the NY Post about just how "thin-skinned" and "hypersensitive to public criticism" Mamdani truly is.

Behind the scenes, Hizzoner huffily badgers critics who dare question him publicly, harbors petty grudges against prominent pols and often only responds to texts when he’s miffed about bad press, according to interviews with more than a dozen elected officials, consultants and other politicos.
“I see more and more he cannot handle criticism, but mainly from elected officials who he thinks he can push around,” one political consultant said.

Sounds like he's a bully, too. The insiders who were dishing wanted to avoid crossing "a touchy mayor with whom they must deal over matters of governance and politics."

The report indicated he was upset when Jewish leaders told him to "stop fanning the flames of hatred" against Israel after an alleged antisemitic stabbing attack in the city. He called at least one elected official complaining about being told to tone it down, and upset that the criticism was related to him calling Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu a war criminal.

Mamdani is also sensitive to criticism of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) since he's one of their most prominent members. So when the Queens Borough President Donovan Richards claimed the DSA was "white supremacy" in an X post, highlighting what some see as an issue between the DSA and some minorities, Mamdani allegedly tried to get Richards to shut down the post.

“He’s so thin-skinned and reads everything,” one City Council member said.
“His security blanket is his phone and the dopamine from how many likes he gets on a post,” a Democratic operative scoffed. “Seems to keep him going.”

Mamdani is also allegedly tough on staff, and treats people who cross him with a "cold demeanor," the report said.

According to a Democrat operative:

“He has been known to hold grudges against whoever challenges him or his positions for even some of the smallest of slights, and those people get sent to the back of the line unless he needs something.”

Mamdani is even more sensitive than former mayor Bill de Blasio, according to the report.

We reported how Mamdani was allegedly fuming after he was snubbed from being allowed to deliver remarks for a slain soldier at the funeral. Then, too, you know it had to have been eating at him when he was booed, and some shouted at him to leave at a Staten Island event on Tuesday. He only spoke for about a minute before he left the stage.
