US EditionTrump goes after Mamdani at Iowa rally
- On Wednesday, President Donald Trump called New York mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani a 'Communist Lunatic' on Truth Social and vowed to save New York City from him.
- Trump's attacks followed Mamdani's official nomination and primary victory this week, which sparked a racist and Islamophobic backlash among Republicans targeting Mamdani's ethnic and political background.
- Mamdani, a progressive Muslim immigrant and self-described democratic socialist who became a U.S. citizen in 2018, rejected Trump's statements as an attempt to intimidate New Yorkers who speak out.
- During a speech in Des Moines yesterday, Trump said, “In New York, they're trying to elect a communist” who would “destroy” the city, while Mamdani refused to be intimidated by these accusations.
- The dispute reflects broader tensions over citizenship rights and multiculturalism, with Trump threatening legal action against Mamdani and some New Yorkers expressing willingness to protect him, even forming a human shield if necessary.
