Is it true Zohran Mamdani doesn’t believe in the Capital Asset Pricing Model?

Saw something recently where Zohran said the thought the assumptions behind CAPM were too dubious. He didn’t give an alternative model to use, but just wondering what yall think overall?

He's a local politican, not a banker... why would he know or believe in the CAPM model. Go outside of the finance bubble and try to understand the world does not circle around you or IB.
