New York Mayor runner Zohran Mamdani says that Islamophobia is “endemic” in the US, and his opponents have given him ample reason to make that case.

A New York congresswoman called him “the jihadhist candidate” and Republican Randy Fine is trying to have him deported. Plus Mamdani’s main opponent, Andrew Cuomo, has called him a “terrorist sympathiser” and was widely criticised for saying this in a recent interview.

For his part, Mamdani has not always struck the right tone on issues of race and faith, previously comparing the NYPD to the IDF and making bizarre statements about the real victims of 9/11.It comes at a time of hand-wringing and soul-searching over ICE raids, anti-immigrant rhetoric and the question of what it means to be an American.

Is Mamdani the embodiment of this great colorblind meritocracy? Or, as Fine puts it, part of the “invasion”?

Joining Piers Morgan to debate is Randy Fine himself as well as former deputy press secretary Katie Miller, founder and CEO of The Young Turks Cenk Uygur, host of ‘Keeping It Real’ Jillian Michaels and Palestinian-American journalist Omar Baddar.
