Famous Democrat shares fears over NYC mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani’s angry victory speech as socialist’s win sparks fury – live

Socialist Zohran Mamdani slammed Donald Trump in his victory speech on Tuesday night, addressing the president directly in front of cheering supporters.

‘Donald Trump, since I know you’re watching, I have four words for you: Turn the volume up!’ he said.

‘If any city can show a nation how to stop Donald Trump, it is the city that gave rise to him,’ said Mamdani, who represents a district in the same borough of Queens where the president was raised.

‘So, if there is any way to terrify a despot, it is by dismantling the very conditions that allowed him to accumulate power. This is not only how we stop Trump, it’s how we stop the next one.’

Mamdani alternated between attacking his political enemies and declaring a ‘new dawn’ for New York City.

He continued: ‘Here we believe in standing up for those we love, whether you are an immigrant, a member of the trans community, one of the many Black women that Donald Trump has fired from a federal job, a single mom still waiting for the cost of groceries to go down, or anyone else with their back against the wall.’

California Governor Gavin Newsom urged Blue states across the nation to follow his lead and redraw their congressional maps to counter Donald Trump’s efforts.

Newsom said the plan could ‘de facto end Donald Trump’s presidency’ by the 2026 midterms, preventing the White House from instating many of its policies if Democrats retake the House.

‘It is all on the line,’ he said.

As Democrats won elections across the nation on Tuesday night, Newsom celebrated the passage of his Prop 50 campaign, which will redraw California’s congressional map and likely hand the Democrats five extra seats in congress.

‘We need to see other states, with their remarkable leaders that have been doing remarkable things, meet this moment head-on as well,’ he said.

Zohran Mamdani has faced accusations that his slate of far-left policies will be near-impossible to achieve once actually in power.

The socialist admitted in his victory speech on Tuesday night that when he ‘enters city hall in 58 days, expectations will be high.’

‘We will meet them,’ he declared.

His promises include freezing rents, making city buses free, raising the minimum wage to $30 an hour, and radically increasing taxes on the rich.

Socialist Zohran Mamdani’s stunning victory is set to radically change New York City policy – and some experts are sounding the alarm.

In fact, people are so startled by his promises that a recent Daily Mail poll predicted that 25 percent, or 2.12 million residents would ‘consider’ fleeing the city in the event of his victory in what would be the largest mass exodus in US history.

His banner policies include:

• Tax hikes on the rich and big businesses
• Disbanding the NYPD’s Strategic Response Group
• Freezing rents
• Tripling the city’s stock of publicly subsidized, permanently affordable, union-built, rent-stabilized homes
• Free buses
• City-owned grocery stores
• Free childcare up to age five
• $30 minimum wage

Andrew Cuomo urged his supporters not to boo mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani during his solemn concession speech on Tuesday night.

The former New York governor’s supporters began to jeer as Cuomo mentioned Mamdani, leading him to shoot back: ‘That is not right, and that is not us.’

‘Tonight was their night,’ Cuomo continued.

‘And as they start to transition to government, we will all help any way we can because we need our New York City government to work. We want it to work for all New Yorkers because our city is the greatest city in the world.

‘And we will unite for New York City because we love New York City.’

Donald Trump fumed over Democrats’ clean sweep in elections across the nation on Tuesday night, insisting the reason was that he was not a candidate.

‘TRUMP WASN’T ON THE BALLOT, AND SHUTDOWN, WERE THE TWO REASONS THAT REPUBLICANS LOST ELECTIONS TONIGHT, according to Pollsters,’ Trump wrote on Truth Social.

Following socialist Zohran Mamdani’s win, Trump added an ominous warning over his far-left policies.

‘…AND SO IT BEGINS!’ he wrote.

Gavin Newsom’s Prop 50 plan to radically redraw California’s congressional map to hand Democrats extra House seats also passed.

Republican Curtis Sliwa slammed Andrew Cuomo’s wealthy backers for hurting his campaign in the final stretch as he grew emotional in his concession speech.

‘The Masters of the Universe, the billionaires, decided that I should not have the right to represent all of you,’ Sliwa said.

‘To be the voice of the voiceless, the working class people who are the backbone of this city.’

Sliwa alleged that he had been offered $10 million to drop his campaign to help former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo’s candidacy, but told his supporters: ‘I do not have a price.’

The Republican has been accused of helping socialist Zohran Mamdani’s campaign by siphoning off votes from Cuomo.

But Sliwa took aim at Mamdani in his final speech, warning him not to enact a raft of far-left policies that experts have said could cripple the city’s economy.

‘Let me warn our new leader, if you try to implement socialism, if you try to render our police weak and impotent, if you forsake the people’s public safety, we’re not only organizing, but we are mobilizing,’ he said.

‘We will become the Mayor-elect and his supporters’ worst enemy.’
