President Trump warned Monday that he would deny federal funds to New York City if Democratic nominee Zohran Mamdani wins the mayor's race, escalating his attacks on the candidate following Mayor Eric Adams' decision to exit the contest.
"He is going to have problems with Washington like no Mayor in the history of our once great City," Trump wrote in a social media post. "Remember, he needs the money from me, as President, in order to fulfill all of his FAKE Communist promises. He won't be getting any of it, so what's the point of voting for him?"
