Zohran Mamdani wins 2025 NYC mayoral election — wastes no time in declaring war on Trump in victory speech

New Yorkers elected their first socialist mayor Tuesday, handing far-left Democrat Zohran Mamdani a historic victory — as he claimed a mandate for his potentially budget-busting progressive agenda and all but declared war on President Trump.

The Associated Press and NY1 called the race for the 34-year-old Mamdani about 40 minutes after polls closed at 9 p.m., eliciting cheers from his supporters at his campaign’s Brooklyn watch party.

“New York, tonight you have delivered a mandate for change, a mandate for a new kind of politics, a mandate for a city that we can afford and a mandate for a government that delivers exactly that,” he said, taking the stage after 11 p.m.

He then taunted Trump, prompting cheers from the fired-up crowd.

A great NYC talk show host,Mark Simone,says that the Feds are looking into his campaign donations. He says that there's evidence that at least some of it is illegal.

In a blue city, “hate Trump” is the only platform plank you need.

TDS isn't politics.

It's certifiable lunacy disguised as politics, by people so intellectually bankrupt that they have grasped the immediate, most emotional position rather than to actually work out an effective, cogent counter to an opponent who is far superior to them in both intellect and consistently demonstrated achievement!!!

Neither NYS nor NYC can print money.

Deep State knows this even if their tool is clueless.

Deep State better pray that the Trump admin doesn’t get a hold of NYS’s SNAP data...
