U.S. President Donald Trump has warned that New York City could lose over $100 million in federal funding if Democratic Socialist Zohran Mamdani becomes mayor.
In a fiery Fox News interview, Trump labeled Mamdani a “pure communist” and said his election would be “inconceivable.” Mamdani, a rising progressive voice, has hit back, accusing Trump of using xenophobic and racially charged attacks to derail serious policy debate.
The mayoral race is heating up as Mamdani promises to tax the wealthy and shift the burden off working-class New Yorkers.
Meanwhile, former Governor Andrew Cuomo may re-enter the race as an independent, turning this into a high-stakes national battle.
Is Trump using funding threats as political blackmail—or is Mamdani’s rise shaking the conservative establishment?
