In a social media post on Monday, Donald Trump called Zohran Mamdani a “Liddle’ communist”. He criticized the Democratic governor of New York for supporting the mayoral candidate for New York City. In June, Mamdani, a self-declared socialist and 33-year-old state assemblyman from New York, shocked both the Democratic Party establishment and American politics by winning the party’s mayoral primary.
Ahead of the November 4 election to choose the next mayor of the most populous city in America, he continues to lead the polls. The US president wrote, “New York Governor Kathy Hochul has endorsed the ‘Liddle’ Communist.
This is a very negative development for New York City and a fairly startling one. How can something like that occur? Washington will be keenly monitoring this issue. Mamdani ran on a platform of reducing the wealth gap between the rich and the poor in New York and giving low-income citizens access to affordable housing.
Hochul supported Mamdani against Andrew Cuomo, a prominent former governor and member of one of the most powerful political dynasties in New York, on Sunday. The incumbent, Mayor Eric Adams, is a candidate running as an independent. In expressing her support, Hochul stated, “Affordability has always been my top priority as governor, and it is the No. 1 concern I share with Mr. Mamdani.
