"President Trump is assessing his involvement in the NYC mayoral race and has allegedly spoken with Cuomo about it while targeting Mamdani as a potential adversary."
"Trump believes Mamdani would be a favorable candidate for Republicans because he represents the extremism of the Democratic Party, while he has a favorable view of Mayor Adams."
President Trump is weighing his potential involvement in the New York City mayoral race, particularly interested in countering candidate Zohran Mamdani. A report indicates that Trump has had a conversation with Andrew Cuomo, an independent candidate in the race. Sources from Cuomo's campaign assert that there has been no substantive discussion about collaboration. Trump may either favor Mamdani, perceiving him as emblematic of Democratic extremism, or support Mayor Eric Adams due to his past control over Adams. Cuomo's campaign stresses his unique position to defend New York values effectively.
