The New York City mayoral election is not just the talk of the town, it's also, apparently, the talk of the White House.
It's currently a four-man race, with Queens Assemblyman and Democratic nominee Zohran Mamdani leading the polls. The other major candidates in the race are incumbent Mayor Eric Adams, who in recent polls has single digit support, Republican Curtis Sliwa and former Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who is running as an independent after being defeated by Mamdani in the Democratic primary.
A recent poll showed Mamdani well ahead in the mayor's race in every scenario except one, namely a one-on-one race with Cuomo.
"I would like to see two people drop out and have it be one-on-one, and I think that's a race that could be won," Mr. Trump said.
Mamdani is a Democratic socialist .
