Muslim Communist Zohran Mamdani responded to President Trump’s threat to arrest and deport him if he blocks ICE agents from lawfully removing illegal aliens in New York City.
During a press conference in Florida on Tuesday, President Trump issued a stark warning to radical Democrat and NYC mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani: comply with ICE or face arrest.
Trump blasted Mamdani as a “radical Communist” — even noting that many people are now questioning whether Mamdani is in the country legally.
Mamdani, a self-proclaimed socialist and open supporter of sanctuary cities, has pledged to turn New York City into an ICE-free zone.
“Mr. President, your beloved New York City—your beloved New York City may well be led by a Communist soon: Zohran Mamdani, who in his nomination speech said he will defy ICE and will not allow ICE to arrest criminal aliens in New York City. Your message to Communists, Zohran Mamdani?” a reporter asked Trump.
“Well, then we’ll have to arrest him. 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. We send him money. We send him all the things that he needs to run a government. And by the way, they already get about three times what you get to run. If you look at the per capita, Florida gets one-third of what New York gets in terms of the numbers. Why don’t you give us those numbers? Because that’s what we should send him,” Trump said.

Zohran Mamdani responded to Trump later Tuesday.
Mamdani gaslighted the public and played victim after he vowed to obstruct ICE.
“The President of the United States just threatened to have me arrested, stripped of my citizenship, put in a detention camp and deported. Not because I have broken any law but because I will refuse to let ICE terrorize our city,” Mamdani said.
“We will not accept this intimidation,” he added.
