President Donald Trump said on Sunday that New York City’s Democratic mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani must “do the right thing” if elected mayor, or the city may end up losing federal funds.

In an interview with Fox News, Trump called Mamdani a communist and warned of possible consequences if the 33-year-old state assemblyman were to refuse to comply with his administration’s policies should he be elected mayor.
