"Looking directly into the camera, he told the president that he would be different from the current mayor, Eric Adams, who cowed to Trump early on in his second administration. "I will not be a mayor like Mayor Adams, who will call you to figure out how to stay out of jail," Mamdani said. "I won't be a disgraced governor like Andrew Cuomo, who will call you to ask how to win this election. I can do those things on my own.""
""This is how it's done!" Rep. Sarah McBride (D-DE) posted on X. "This is so smart. And the kind of leadership that many people want: they're worried about economic issues and want people to work together to help them, not to give up their values," Christina Reynolds posted on X. "Maybe it's time for the pathetic and cowardly Democratic Leadership to FINALLY ENDORSE ZOHRAN MAMDANI?" writer Wajahat Ali posted on Bluesky."
Zohran Mamdani faced pointed questions on Fox News about denouncing Damar and pride in living in New York. He remained calm and focused while demonstrating how Democrats can communicate across hostile platforms. Mamdani directly appealed to President Donald Trump, promising to differ from Mayor Eric Adams and former Governor Andrew Cuomo by asserting independence. He stated he would not seek Trump's help to 'stay out of jail' or to 'win this election' and declared he can accomplish goals independently. Social media figures praised the strategy, calling the appearance smart and urging party leaders to consider supporting Mamdani.
