If you’ve ever wondered what the absolute peak of political cringe looks like, this video just set a new record.
Former President Barack Obama and democratic socialist NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani are caught on camera leading a sing-along with a group of little kids in New York City. The song? A cheerful little ditty about “the wheels go round and round.” On the surface it might look innocent, but the context turns it into something far more disturbing.
Watch the full video here:
This isn’t just two politicians being cute with children. It’s Obama — the man who spent eight years in office partially hiding his radical roots — openly teaming up with an avowed democratic socialist who is pushing government-run grocery stores and other failed Marxist ideas. The pair are reveling in the same socialist/Marxist philosophies that have produced nothing but misery, poverty, and millions of deaths everywhere they’ve been tried throughout history.
Look, interacting with kids is normally wholesome. But remember how the media absolutely savaged George W. Bush for calmly reading to schoolchildren on 9/11 while he waited for real information? They called him detached and out of touch. Yet here we have Obama and Mamdani turning a children’s sing-along into a photo-op that celebrates the very ideology responsible for empty shelves, bread lines, and totalitarian control.
Mamdani’s push for government-run grocery stores is straight out of the Soviet playbook. As Austrian economist Ludwig von Mises proved a century ago, central planning is economic blindness. No commissar can ever replicate the information that free markets and private property provide. Every empty Soviet shelf was proof of that failure. Yet here they are, singing with kids while promoting the same deadly ideas.
The kids might be adorable, but Obama and Mamdani are anything but. This moment strips away whatever was left of Obama’s moderate mask. He’s all-in now, openly aligning with radical leftists who want to remake America in the image of the very systems that collapsed under their own weight.
The wheels on the bus may go round and round in the song, but in real socialist experiments the buses stop running, the stores stay empty, and the people wait in lines at the mercy of the state.
This video isn’t cute. It’s a warning.
