🚨 SHOTS FIRED: Rep. Andy Ogles (R-TN) calls Zohran Mamdani, “LITTLE MUHAMMAD”.
In an X post Thursday afternoon, Rep. Ogles from Tennessee posted “DEPORT little muhammad!” with a video of the Socialist Mayoral candidate screaming and violently pushing against several NYC officers during an anti-ICE protest.
“Little Muhammad”, a nickname given to the out-of-control and completely unhinged assemblyman, was most likely used in reference to “little man’s syndrome,” a term used to describe a perceived psychological pattern where individuals, often men, feel a sense of inadequacy, potentially due to their height, and compensate by displaying overly aggressive, domineering, or controlling behaviors.
Ogles’s post, which has now garnered over 4 million views, seemed to receive a mixed bag of replies for the new nickname.
“He [Mamdani] has been a voice for New York City’s progress, advocating for human rights and prosperity across the board. His outreach to the Muslim community and others shows his commitment to all. Taking a clip out of context? That’s just propaganda meant to mislead,” X user Basit replied (@Basitazasamraa).
Others, however, backed the Tennessee representative up, with another X user saying, “No foreigners should get to serve in any political capacity in our country. Natural Born Citizens only. I mean… It’s not like I could just get citizenship in Iran and then run for Tehran Mayor,” said Colton Stiell (@ColtonStiell)
