Trump Warns Governor’s ‘Shocking’ Endorsement Could Have Consequences

President Donald Trump blasted Democrat New York Gov. Kathy Hochul on Monday morning for her endorsement of avowed socialist Zohran Mamdani for New York City mayor.

The most recent polling shows Mamdani is leading by a wide margin against disgraced former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, incumbent Mayor Eric Adams and Republican Curtis Sliwa. Hochul finally threw her support behind Mamdani, a current New York State assemblyman and former rapper, on Sunday evening after months of hesitation.

“Governor Kathy Hochul of New York has Endorsed the ‘Liddle’ Communist,’ Zohran Mamdani, running for Mayor of New York. This is a rather shocking development, and a very bad one for New York City. How can such a thing happen?” Trump posted on his Truth Social platform. “Washington will be watching this situation very closely.”

The president added that there is “no reason to be sending good money after bad,” seemingly threatening to withhold federal funds from New York. (Read more from “Trump Warns Governor’s ‘Shocking’ Endorsement Could Have Consequences” HERE)
