Just in: Trump reveals devastating plan for NYC if ‘communist’ Mamdani wins
Donald Trump said he could withhold federal funds from NYC if ‘communist’ Zohran Mamdani wins Tuesday’s mayoral election.
scribed as a left-wing version of Trump.
‘Well, I think I’m a much better looking person than him, right?’ Trump said about Mamdani.
O’Donnell pointed out that Mamdani, like Trump, has been described as ‘charismatic’ and breaking the old rules.
The president was asked what would happen to his native NYC if Mamdani defeats Andrew Cuomo and Curtis Sliwa.
‘It’s gonna be hard for me as the president to give a lot of money to New York,’ Trump said.’ Because if you have a Communist running New York, all you’re doing is wasting the money you’re sending there.’
Trump admitted that he doesn’t like Cuomo but that he would prefer the disgraced former governor win the election.
‘If it’s gonna be between a bad Democrat and a Communist, I’m gonna pick the bad Democrat all the time, to be honest with you,’ Trump said.
The president compared Mamdani to predecessor Bill de Blasio, who Trump termed ‘the worst mayor in history.’
Trump shut down Cuomo’s promise that if the leftist Mamdani won, Trump would become the real mayor of the city as ‘so crazy.’
The appearance on the show was his first since settling a lawsuit with CBS News over the newsmagazine’s interview with Kamala Harris.
ble-digit lead on Cuomo, with a 15-point lead in a survey by JL Partners for the Daily Mail last week.
The president touched on several subjects and took a look back at his first nine months in office with the CBS newsmagazine.
He remained bullish on Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s work at getting rid of illegal immigrants, even when challenged on some of their tactics.
When asked if some of the ICE raids have ‘gone too far,’ he responded: ‘No. I think they haven’t gone far enough because we’ve been held back by the– by the judges, by the liberal judges that were put in by Biden and by Obama.’
Trump believes the agents must be able to do their jobs to get rid of those in our country illegally.
‘Many of them are murderers. Many of them are people that were thrown outta their countries because they were, you know, criminals. Many of them are people from jails and prisons. Many of them are people from frankly, mental institutions.’
The president said that anyone he sees as without a criminal record may be reassessed following deportation.
We have to start off with a policy, and the policy has to be you came into the country illegally, you’re gonna go out. However, you’ve also seen, you’re gonna go out. We’re gonna work with you, and you’re gonna come back into our country legally,’ he said.
Trump also continued to hammer the Democrats on the government shutdown which will begin its 33rd day on Monday.
‘I mean, the Republicans are voting almost unanimously to end it, and the Democrats keep voting against ending it. You know, they’ve never had this.’
He said the Democrats refusal to bargain is an example of ‘Trump derangement syndrome.’
