“It can only get worse with a Communist at the helm, and I don’t want to send, as President, good money after bad,” President Trump said
—
President Trump said that if Democratic nominee Zohran Mamdani wins the New York mayoral race, then he will give the city only minimal federal funding.
Trump posted on Truth Social on Monday regarding the Tuesday election, saying, “If Communist Candidate Zohran Mamdani wins the Election for Mayor of New York City, it is highly unlikely that I will be contributing Federal Funds, other than the very minimum as required, to my beloved first home, because of the fact that, as a Communist, this once great City has ZERO chance of success, or even survival!
“It can only get worse with a Communist at the helm, and I don’t want to send, as President, good money after bad. It is my obligation to run the Nation, and it is my strong conviction that New York City will be a Complete and Total Economic and Social Disaster should Mamdani win. His principles have been tested for over a thousand years, and never once have they been successful.”
