Republican mayoral nominee Curtis Sliwa expressed concerns that President Trump's involvement in the New York City election could benefit Democratic candidate Zohran Mamdani. Sliwa emphasized that every mention of Trump versus Mamdani enhances Mamdani's visibility. Mamdani recently won the Democratic primary against prominent figures and is campaigning against both independent Cuomo and Mayor Eric Adams. Trump has vocally opposed Mamdani, labeling him negatively, while Sliwa suggested Trump should focus on national issues instead. Other candidates have criticized Trump's involvement as disqualifying and damaging to the election's integrity.
Trump's interference in the New York mayoral election could embolden Democratic candidate Zohran Mamdani, according to Republican nominee Curtis Sliwa. Sliwa stated, 'Every day it's Trump versus Zohran Mamdani, it's a good day for Zohran Mamdani.' He emphasized that publicity from influential figures only strengthens Mamdani's position.
Sliwa urged President Trump to focus on global issues rather than the New York City mayoral race, asserting, 'This election in New York City does not affect all Americans.' He reiterated the notion that Trump's involvement might backfire and bolster Mamdani's campaign.
