Hour 2 of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show delivers a high-energy, politically charged interview with Republican NYC mayoral candidate Curtis Sliwa, just six days ahead of the pivotal New York City election. This segment centers on Sliwa’s refusal to drop out of the race despite concerns that vote-splitting between him and Andrew Cuomo could hand victory to Democratic Socialist Zohran Mamdani. Sliwa passionately defends his candidacy, invoking populist themes, his Guardian Angels legacy, and a commitment to fighting crime and corruption in NYC.

The hour features Sliwa’s fiery rhetoric against both Cuomo and Mamdani, whom he labels as equally destructive to New York. He blames Cuomo for enabling Mamdani’s rise and criticizes Cuomo’s past policies, including no-cash bail, prison closures, and mismanagement of juvenile crime. Sliwa also reveals he was offered $10 million to drop out of the race—an allegation he calls unethical and potentially criminal. He emphasizes his grassroots campaign, his new “Protect Animals” ballot line, and his belief in democratic choice over billionaire influence.

Clay and Buck analyze Sliwa’s strategy and motivations, concluding that Sliwa sees no meaningful difference between Cuomo and Mamdani, which justifies his continued presence in the race. They debate whether Mamdani’s potential victory would be a disaster for NYC or a wake-up call for the rest of the country about the dangers of far-left governance. The hosts explore how Mamdani’s radical positions—such as taxing white neighborhoods more, defunding police, and supporting socialist policies—could impact national politics and the Democratic Party’s future.

The conversation expands to compare Mamdani’s ideology with other prominent Democrats like Gavin Newsom, Kamala Harris, and Joe Biden, arguing that while mainstream Democrats often mask their progressive agendas, Mamdani openly embraces extreme left-wing positions. The hosts suggest that Mamdani’s election could serve as a cautionary tale for voters nationwide and potentially fuel a conservative resurgence.

Listeners from across the country weigh in, with some supporting Clay’s concerns about vote-splitting and others expressing fatigue over NYC-centric coverage. The hosts defend the focus, citing the national significance of the NYC mayoral race and its implications for the broader political landscape.
