No, Donald Trump’s claim that New York City mayoral candidate’s platform is akin to communism is false, experts say.
Zohran Mamdani, the 33-year-old who soared to the lead in the New York City mayoral Democratic primary, describes himself as a democratic socialist. But some politicians and social media posts falsely labelled him a communist.
President Donald Trump called Mamdani “a 100% Communist Lunatic”, in a June 25 Truth Social post.

He is worse than a communist, if that is possible. He s a Jihadist Communist.
Do they really think I'm going to believe Al Jazeera's "experts?
Would "Aljazeera" lie?
(Unfortunately MUCH more reliable than American "Media")

Love people arguing about the degree of communism in a politician. For me it’s easy, you either are or you are not. Simple test, simple standard. Kind of like pregnancy, either are or not. No pregnancy lite……
Governments & Politics easily explained:
LIBERALISM
You have 2 cows.
The State takes both cows, slaughters them for their own food,
and taxes you to death for worthless social programs, for having
the animals originally.
PROGRESSIVISM
You have 2 cows.
Progs advocate for advancements in science, technology,
economic development and social organization, but they’re so full
of bullshit, nothing ever changes.
You still have 2 cows.
SOCIALISM
You have 2 cows.
The State forces you to give one to your neighbor, shoots the neighbor
and forces you to milk them both, giving all milk back to the state.
The State gives you a cup of sour milk.
LEFTISM
You have 2 cows.
The State terrrorizes the animals until they can’t produce milk,
beats you and your wife to death, and puts your daughters & sons
into the Pedophile Nation, for the Epsteins, Weiners, Clintons etc.
MARXISM
You have 2 cows.
The government takes both and tosses you into a hog pen, where you’re
devoured and never found.
COMMUNISM
You have 2 cows.
The State takes both and gives you nothing.
They shoot your family and put you in a gulag.

CRONY CAPITALISM

of choice meat cuts and fresh milk.
You get some lousy hamburger and a jar of sour milk.
BUREAUCRATISM
You have 2 cows.
The State takes both, shoots one, hires a sub-contractor to milk the other, and then throws the milk away.
CONTEMPORARY WALL STREETISM
You have 2 cows.
You sell one, bundle the other with a goat, a mule,
and two dry cows.
You pile into the derivatives market, buy a Gulfstream
and when it all comes down around your ears...
You go to the government for a bailout.
TRADITIONAL CAPITALISM
You have 2 cows.
You sell one and buy a bull.
Your herd multiplies, and the economy grows.
You sell them and retire on the income.
SURREALISM
You have 2 giraffes.
The government taxes ever penny you get,
and then gives you a government grant,
from your own money,
but only if you take harmonica lessons.
Takeover grocery stores , close prisons etc etc etc , Insane
Oh and he wants to make NYC equal , everyone equal so that’s everyone poor ,LOL
Because it sure hasn't been fact checked.
Is the pope Catholic?
Never mind. Poor choice of comparative personage.
He's running as a Democrat and a Muslim, so yeah.....
A distinction without a difference.
Do not care what his flavor of the week title might be. Only care that he is not elected.
Yes, yes he is.
Hilarious!
If what Mamdani says he wants isn’t communism, it’s close enough.
Communal housing, government takeover of the food supply, elimination of private property, etc. are UNAMERICAN. Deport.
Those from the former Eastern Bloc revealed they saw very little difference between Socialists and the Communists. In theory everything leads to communism and the path to that is all political slavery government and death to individual liberty.
In the long history of totalitarians, Mohammed supersedes all. Worldwide the philosophy of Islam has never been stronger. Civilization suffers as it is exterminated in locations around the planet.
It certainly looks like it, but notice that we are saying “communist,” not “Communist.” For a very long time, the debate was over whether someone was a member of a Communist Party loyal to Moscow (or Peking or Belgrade or Tirana or Havana or Hanoi). Now it’s about whether someone favors replacing capitalism with a post-capitalist system without private ownership.
Is Mamdani a Marxist? He’s more of one than a lot of people who’ve been called that here, and he may even literally be a Marxist.
