"Trump's Fury at Muslim's Candidacy in New York City Mayoral Election"

US President Donald Trump Wednesday called Zohran Mamdani, a strong supporter of Palestine, a "Communist Lunatic" after Mamdani Tuesday night secured enough votes in New York City's Democratic mayoral primary to position himself as the likely winner.

Hawzah News Agency- Former Governor Andrew Cuomo conceded defeat in the New York City Democratic primary Tuesday night, well-positioning front-runner Zohran Mamdani to become the city's first Muslim mayor.

Mamdani has been a strong supporter of Palestine and a staunch critic of Israel and its deadly military attacks.

In 2020, he wrote on X that he had co-founded a chapter of Students for Justice in Palestine at his alma mater, Bowdoin College, saying: "I know firsthand the furious opposition students can provoke by standing up for our Palestinian brothers & sisters''.

In 2023, he joined a hunger strike camp outside the White House calling for a ceasefire.
