In a dramatic turn of events in New York City politics, President Donald Trump took to Truth Social to unleash a barrage of criticism against Zohran Mamdani, who recently secured victory in the Democratic mayoral primary. Describing the 33-year-old assemblyman using an array of strong terms, Trump labeled him a ‘100% Communist Lunatic.’ The former president expressed grave concerns about the implications of Mamdani's win, stating bluntly that New York City is ‘screwed.’

Trump’s post did not hold back, as he exclaimed, “It’s finally happened, the Democrats have crossed the line. Zohran Mamdani, a 100% Communist Lunatic, has just won the Dem Primary, and is on his way to becoming Mayor.” He went on to express disbelief at the current political climate, comparing it to previous elections where he claimed to have encountered ‘Radical Lefties’ but deemed Mamdani’s victory as crossing an unacceptable threshold.

The former president's commentary continued with a scathing critique of Mamdani’s appearance and demeanor, calling him unattractive and questioning his intelligence. “He looks TERRIBLE, his voice is grating, he’s not very smart,” Trump wrote, indicating that he believes Mamdani's support from prominent progressive figures such as Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and her allies, whom he referred to as ‘AOC+3, Dummies ALL,’ further solidified his negative view of the situation.

Trump's post also targeted Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, whom he mockingly referred to as ‘Cryin’ Chuck’ and insinuated that Schumer’s support for Mamdani was emblematic of a broader Democratic decline. He stated, “Yes, this is a big moment in the History of our Country!” indicating his belief that Mamdani’s rise reflects a troubling trend within the Democratic Party.

Trump went on to suggest a far-fetched plan for the Democrats to regain relevance, humorously proposing that they nominate what he termed a ‘Low IQ Candidate,’ Jasmine Crockett, for President, with AOC and her allies filling key roles in the administration. He concluded with a dire prediction for the country under the leadership of Mamdani, stating, “Added together with our future Communist Mayor of New York City, Zohran Mamdani, and our Country is really SCREWED!”

Mamdani, whose victory was notable as he defeated former Governor Andrew Cuomo in the primary, has become a polarizing figure, prompting intense reactions from various political factions. His rise in the political arena is viewed by supporters as a breath of fresh air, while opponents, including Trump and many MAGA supporters, see it as a dire threat to traditional values and governance in the city.
