In a television interview, Trump said, ”As president, it would be difficult for me to send a lot of money to New York. Because if New York falls into the hands of a communist, the money sent there would be useless.”

US President Donald Trump has said that it will be difficult to send federal funding to New York City if left-wing candidate Zohran Mamdani is elected mayor of New York City.
In a television interview, Trump said, “As president, it would be difficult for me to send a lot of money to New York. Because if New York falls into the hands of a communist, the money sent there would be useless.”
The Trump administration has tried to reduce federal funding for programs in Democratic-controlled areas several times before.
Opinion polls show Zahran Mamdani ahead of his main rival, former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo, ahead of Tuesday’s vote.
But Mamdani has not made it clear how and in what way his statement on the funding would be implemented and what steps would be taken if he wins the election.
