GOP mayoral candidate urges Trump to stay out of New York City race

NEW YORK CITY, AUG 10 – Curtis Sliwa warns Trump that intervening in the crowded New York City mayoral race could strengthen Democratic Socialist Zohran Mamdani’s chances, urging focus on national issues instead.

  • On Saturday, Curtis Sliwa warned President Donald Trump to stay out of the New York City mayoral race, saying `In this situation, it doesn’t help if he intervenes in New York City`.
  • In recent weeks, Trump held private discussions about which candidate should face Mamdani and reportedly spoke with former Governor Andrew Cuomo.
  • Sliwa warned Trump's backing would turn the contest into a Trump vs. Mamdani showdown, noting his support doesn't translate in New York City.
  • Following Sliwa's remarks, Mamdani criticized Cuomo's ties to Trump and said `The job of mayor is not to audition to be the jester for a want-to-be king` this week.
  • The four-way race includes Sliwa, Mamdani, Mayor Eric Adams, and former Governor Andrew Cuomo, with opponents urging consolidation to prevent Mamdani's win.
