NEW YORK — Affordability was at the center of Zohran Mamdani’s winning primary campaign for New York City mayor. President Donald Trump has become the focus of his general election bid. The Democratic nominee launched a five-borough tour “against Trump” on Monday to amplify how he believes the president will harm New York City — and why Mamdani thinks he should be elected to lead the vanguard. He’s also tying opponents Andrew Cuomo, Eric Adams and Curtis Sliwa closely to Trump, adopting a classic Democratic general election playbook by casting two fellow Democrats and the GOP nominee as the president’s

He might not realize that he’s not the first NY pol to run against Trump, vowing to make his life miserable. Didn’t work out too well for those who’ve tried, just sayin’.

So when is the little nepo communist going to vacate his rent-controlled apartment (worth a couple million) to make it available to a less fortunate individual?

He'd better be careful - lots of people thought they could take on PDJT and ended up much worse off - Liz Cheney (voted out of office), Adam Schiff and Letitia James (under investigation for mortgage fraud), Joe Biden (humiliated in a debate and shoved out of 2024 election), Jack Smith (under investigation for Hatch Act violations), January 6th prosecutors (fired), FBI poobahs (fired), James Clapper and John Brennan (security clearances yanked and now under investigation for conspiracy), Barry O (exposed as a co-conspirator), Antifa crowds protesting ICE actions (hunted down like dogs, arrested, and charged with serious felonies) and so on.

Seriously, New Yorkers? Is that - and all the 'free' stuff - what you want?

I doubt if Pres Trump is going to be looking under his bed for scary monsters like Mamdani.
But Mamdani might be so advised.

Clever move by Mamdani. By tapping into NY voters' foaming-at-the-mouth hatred of Trump, he is playing them like a violin. They will vote him in without even bothering to find out who or what he is.

Uh oh! It looks like NYC has caught a bad case of Marxist cancer, and it looks like it might be terminal this time. The Democrats of the city spawned this. What happens when he gets elected will be their fault too. RIP DNC.

iMadman has far too high an opinion of himself. He's going to fall on his communist face, and fail totally. I feel sorry for New Yorkers. Life is about to get worse for them because their political stupidity is so durable.

The Ugandan clown is talking himself right out of a public office. His fellow communists are abandoning him as too stupid and radical, even for a democrat.

He'll be a nightmare for New Yorkers and anyone who visits the city. President Trump. Not so much.

Mamdani is a joke. But then, these days, New York is a joke. The Democrats have made the movie, "Escape from New York", prophetic.

If this little commie is elected, those with means to leave should make plans now. They won't though. Not many are able to but as time goes by, the city will become unlivable. The tax base will crater and the city will be bankrupt. It will be 1975 again. I hope Trump will do what Ford told Koch and the city,,"Drop Dead". We have p***** enough of our taxpayer dollars on stupid bailouts to feckless Dem "leaders".

This little Communist twit has an exaggerated sense of his own worth. Trump will brush him aside like a housefly.
Of course, New Yorkers will elect him. New York will collapse: gradually, then suddenly. By the time the midterm elections are here, it will be well-nigh uninhabitable. The streets will be controlled by roving gangs of thugs. It will descend into chaos. And anytime I hear someone lamenting about the horrible state of affairs in New York, I will state - loudly - “Democrats did this.”

If by “worst nightmare,” you mean yet another beta-boy fly buzzing in President Trump’s face, then yes, I guess so.

Islam is a poison that has infected our country. Mamdani is the latest viral explosion. You guys have no idea how entrenched these people are and how difficult it will be to extricate them. New York has become what we never thought would happen after 9-11.
Islam is a poison. Islam delenda est.

Everyone has questions about Mamdani. So, what does he do? Talk about Trump! It's called deflection. Don't fall for it.

More like the other way around. Without federal bail out dollars, NYC will crash and burn.
