New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani (D) used part of his Wednesday interview on Fox News to directly address President Donald Trump.
Mamdani, a self-described Democratic socialist, sat down with Fox News’ Martha MacCallum on The Story for an interview, and when asked what specifically qualifies him to run the biggest city in the country, and Trump’s criticism that he is woefully underqualified. Mamdani took the chance to look straight into the camera and address Trump while also blasting one current mayoral opponent, former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo, and another former opponent — New York City Mayor Eric Adams, who recently ended his campaign.
Mamdani is also facing Republican candidate Curtis Sliwa in the highly publicized race.
“I want to take this moment, because you spoke about President Trump, and he may be watching right now, and I just want to speak directly to the president,” Mamdani said as he stared down the camera.
The Democrat said he would have a much different relationship with Trump as mayor than Cuomo or Adams. He said he is, however, willing to speak anytime about lowering costs.
He said:
I will not be a mayor like Mayor Adams who will call you to figure out how to stay out of jail. I won’t be a disgraced governor like Andrew Cuomo who will call you to ask how to win this election. I can do those things on my own.
I will, however, be a mayor who is ready to speak at any time to lower the cost of living. That’s the way I’m going to lead this city. That’s the way the partnership I want to build not only with Washington, D.C., but with anyone across this country. And I think it’s important because too often the focus on the needs of working class Americans, working class New Yorkers are put to the side as we talk more and more about the very kinds of corrupt politicians like Andrew Cuomo that delivered us into this kind of crisis.
