President Trump blasted Zohran Mamdani’s politics — and looks — Wednesday after the socialist’s stunning upset in New York’s Democratic mayoral primary.
“Democrats have crossed the line by elevating a 100% Communist Lunatic,” Trump railed in a Truth Social post.
“We’ve had Radical Lefties before, but this is getting a little ridiculous,” he added.
The president then attacked Mamdani’s appearance and speaking voice.
“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,” Trump wrote.
“Yes, this is a big moment in the History of our Country!”
The AOC+3 label is likely in reference to the so-called “Squad” in Congress, a progressive group including Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.).
Trump also mentioned Mamdani in a sarcastic follow-up post about how Democrats can get back to winning on a national stage.
“The Democrats should nominate Low IQ Candidate, [Congresswoman] 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!” Trump stated.
The president’s salvo of insults comes as the political world in New York and beyond reacts to the Democratic socialist’s stunning primary performance Tuesday night that all but locks up the Democratic nomination for mayoral election in November.
The Queens state assemblyman upset former Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who ultimately conceded the primary race after trailing by about 70,000 votes.
US Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY), whom Trump referenced in his Truth Social post, tweeted that he called Mamdani and looks forward to meeting with him soon.
“He ran an impressive campaign that connected with New Yorkers about affordability, fairness, & opportunity,” Schumer wrote.
