“Mayoral frontrunner Zohran Mamdani struck a defiant tone in an early morning speech Monday in response to President Donald Trump’s ‘threats’ to block federal funding to New York City if the democratic socialist is elected Tuesday. Mamdani marched across the Brooklyn Bridge to City Hall …. Flanked by supporters, local officials and Attorney General Letitia James, Mamdani promised to fight back against the Trump administration. … Trump told CBS'[s] Norah O’Donnell on ’60 Minutes’ Sunday that if Mamdani wins, it is ‘going to be hard for me, as the president, to give a lot of money to New York.’ … ‘I’m not a fan of Cuomo one way or the other, but if it’s going to be between a bad Democrat and a communist, I’m going to pick that bad Democrat all the time, to be honest with you’ …. Mamdani on Monday referenced Trump’s aforementioned comments as an endorsement of Cuomo.” (11/03/25)
