Trump on Mamdani's candidacy: '[He] will prove to be one of the best things to ever happen to our great Republican Party'
The president argued that "he is going to have problems with Washington like no Mayor in the history of our once great City. 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?"
