Donald Trump in a post on Truth Social says he holds all the cards on Mamdani.
Earlier at a visit to Alligator Alcatraz in Florida Trump suggested that Mamdani came to the country illegally and he will look into it.
If Mamdani blocks ICE agents from making arrests in the city, “Well, then we’ll have to arrest him,” he said. “Look, we don’t need a communist in this country. But if we have one, I’m going to be watching over him very carefully on behalf of the nation.”
Mamdani put out a statement on X that he will not be intimidated by the threats.
