President Trump blasted Zohran Mamdani\u2019s politics<\/a> \u2013 and looks \u2013 Wednesday after the socialist\u2019s stunning upset in New York\u2019s Democratic mayoral primary.<\/p>\n

\u201cDemocrats have crossed the line by elevating a 100% Communist Lunatic,\u201d Trump railed in a Truth Social post.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve had Radical Lefties before, but this is getting a little ridiculous,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

The president then attacked Mamdani\u2019s appearance and speaking voice.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe looks TERRIBLE, his voice is grating, he\u2019s not very smart, he\u2019s got AOC+3, Dummies ALL, backing him, and even our Great Palestinian Senator, Cryin\u2019 Chuck Schumer, is groveling over him,\u201d Trump wrote.<\/p>\n

\u201cYes, this is a big moment in the History of our Country!\u201d<\/p>\n

The AOC+3 label is likely in reference to the so-called squad in Congress, a progressive group including Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez<\/a> and Ilhan Omar.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Trump also mentioned Mamdani in a sarcastic<\/a> follow-up post about how Democrats can get back to winning on a national stage.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Democrats should nominate Low IQ Candidate, [Congresswoman] Jasmine Crockett, for President, and AOC+3 should be, respectively, Vice President, and three High Level Members of the Cabinet \u2013 Added together with our future Communist Mayor of New York City, Zohran Mamdani, and our Country is really SCREWED!\u201d Trump stated.<\/p>\n

The president\u2019s salvo of insults comes as the political world in New York and beyond react to the Democratic socialist\u2019s stunning primary performance Tuesday night that all but locks up the Democratic nomination for mayoral election in November.<\/p>\n

The president attacked Mamdani\u2019s appearance and speaking voice in the post. Truth Social<\/p>\n

The Queens state assemblyman upset former Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who ultimately conceded the primary race after trailing by about 70,000 votes.<\/p>\n

Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, who Trump referenced in his Truth Social post, tweeted that he called Mamdani and looks forward to meeting with him soon.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe ran an impressive campaign that connected with New Yorkers about affordability, fairness, & opportunity,\u201d Schumer wrote.<\/p>\n

Gov. Kathy Hochul<\/a>, who could either help or hurt Mamdani\u2019s agenda if he\u2019s elected mayor, also commended the race the lefty ran.<\/p>\n

But other pols were less congratulatory, including moderates in his own party.<\/p>\n

\u201cI had serious concerns about Assemblyman Mamdani before yesterday, and that is one of the reasons I endorsed his opponent,\u201d Long Island Rep. Tom Suozzi said on X. \u201cThose concerns remain.\u201d<\/p>\n

Moderate Democrats have expressed concerns with Mamdani winning the party\u2019s primary. James Messerschmidt<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, fellow Long Island Rep. Laura Gillen lamented that Mamdani is \u201ctoo extreme\u201d for New York City.<\/p>\n

\u201cHis entire campaign has been built on unachievable promises and higher taxes, which is the last thing New York needs,\u201d she said in a\u00a0statement.<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cBeyond that, Mr. Mamdani has called to defund the police and has demonstrated a deeply disturbing pattern of unacceptable antisemitic comments which stoke hate at a time when antisemitism is skyrocketing.\u201d<\/p>\n

GOP Councilwoman Vickie Paladino, who represents part of Queens, also slammed Mamdani\u2019s election win.<\/p>\n

Real New Yorkers know how to spot a cheap three-card-monte dealer who\u2019ll take your money then try to sell you a fake Rolex before you walk away,\u201d Paladino\u00a0tweeted.<\/a>\u00a0\u201cIt\u2019s the tourists and transplants who fall for the con.\u201d<\/p>\n

It\u2019s unclear if Cuomo will continue his election fight into November on an independent line. Mayor Eric Adams, who is all-steam ahead on an independent line and Republican Curtis Sliwa will be going up against Mamdani in the general.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"President Trump blasted Zohran Mamdani\u2019s politics \u2013 and looks \u2013 Wednesday after the socialist\u2019s stunning upset in New…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":14580,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5122],"tags":[11338,5229,14964,7033,69,5248,405,403,5226,5225,5228,5227,80,5200,67,586,132,5230,68,1154,2969,5301],"class_list":{"0":"post-14579","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-new-york","8":"tag-alexandria-ocasio-cortez","9":"tag-america","10":"tag-chuck-schumer","11":"tag-democrats","12":"tag-donald-trump","13":"tag-metro","14":"tag-new-york","15":"tag-new-york-city","16":"tag-newyork","17":"tag-newyorkcity","18":"tag-ny","19":"tag-nyc","20":"tag-politics","21":"tag-truth-social","22":"tag-united-states","23":"tag-united-states-of-america","24":"tag-unitedstates","25":"tag-unitedstatesofamerica","26":"tag-us","27":"tag-us-news","28":"tag-usa","29":"tag-zohran-mamdani"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14579","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=14579"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14579\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/14580"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=14579"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=14579"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=14579"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
