"I don't like to see a communist become mayor, I will tell you that, and I don't think you can win unless you have one one-on-one. Somehow he has gotten a little bit of a lead. I have no idea how that happened, but I would prefer not to have a communist mayor of New York City, and, you know, that is what he is based on his policy."
"Let's cut out the middle man. Why should I debate Donald Trump's puppet when I can debate Donald Trump, himself. If Donald Trump is serious about this, he should come to New York City and we can have as many debates as you want about why he is cutting SNAP benefits for hungry New Yorkers just to fund tax cuts for his billionaire donors."
Zohran Mamdani, a Queens Assemblyman, has emerged as a shock frontrunner in a four-way New York City mayoral race against Andrew Cuomo, Mayor Eric Adams, and Curtis Sliwa. President Donald Trump publicly labeled Mamdani a "communist" at a White House dinner with tech CEOs and said he preferred a one-on-one matchup, urging candidates to drop out. Andrew Cuomo challenged Mamdani to five debates, one in each borough. Mamdani rejected debating Cuomo's campaign surrogate and instead invited Trump to New York City to debate, criticizing Trump for cutting SNAP benefits to fund tax cuts for billionaires.
