Trump Rips Zohran Mamdani After NYC Primary Triumph: ‘Communist Lunatic’
President Donald Trump unloaded on democratic socialist and New York state assemblyman Zohran Mamdani after Mamdani set off a political earthquake in New York City by defeating former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo in the city’s Democratic primary Tuesday night.
The outcome is not yet final—the New York City Board of Elections is expected to release the full results on July 1—but Mamdani is on track to secure the Democratic Party’s mayoral nomination.
Trump attacked Mamdani on his social media website, Truth Social, while pointing to the likely Democratic nominee’s support from progressive lawmakers including New York Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.
“It’s finally happened, the Democrats have crossed the line. Zohran Mamdani, a 100% Communist Lunatic, has just won the Dem Primary, and is on his way to becoming Mayor,” Trump posted on Truth Social on Wednesday afternoon. “We’ve had Radical Lefties before, but this is getting a little ridiculous. He looks TERRIBLE, his voice is grating, he’s not very smart, he’s got AOC+3, Dummies ALL, backing him, and even our Great Palestinian Senator, Cryin’ Chuck Schumer, is groveling over him. Yes, this is a big moment in the History of our Country!”
The president added: “I have an idea for the Democrats to bring them back into ‘play.’ After years of being left out in the cold, including suffering one of the Greatest Losses in History, the 2024 Presidential Election, the Democrats should nominate Low IQ Candidate, Jasmine Crockett, for President, and AOC+3 should be, respectively, Vice President, and three High Level Members of the Cabinet – Added together with our future Communist Mayor of New York City, Zohran Mamdani, and our Country is really SCREWED!”
