“He looks terrible like”—Trump Blasts India-born 'Socialist Muslim' Zohran Mamdani | NYC Mayrol Poll

Donald Trump has launched a scathing personal attack on Zohran Mamdani — the 33-year-old Indian-origin socialist who just won New York City's Democratic mayoral primary. Calling him a "100% communist lunatic" with a "grating voice" and “terrible looks,” Trump didn't hold back. The president also lashed out at progressive Democrats like AOC and Chuck Schumer for backing Mamdani, warning that NYC is "falling to socialism." Who is Zohran Mamdani? Can a Marxist win New York? And why is Trump going nuclear over this primary upset?

Indian-origin socialist stuns America: Zohran Mamdani defeats Cuomo in New York City mayoral shocker

Indian-origin Democrat Zohran Mamdani has shocked the U.S. political establishment by defeating former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo in the NYC mayoral primary. Backed by the Democratic Socialists of America, Mamdani's victory marks a major moment for progressive politics and a deep shake-up within the Democratic Party. Son of filmmaker Mira Nair and Marxist scholar Mahmood Mamdani, Zohran ran on a bold platform focused on housing, affordability, and social justice — and won.
