Zohran Mamdani's Victory Speech: 'Trump, I Know You're Watching; I Have 4 Words For You…'| NYC Mayor

In a historic political upset, Zohran Mamdani, a 34-year-old democratic socialist, has won the New York City mayoral race, becoming the first Muslim mayor in the city’s history.

Mamdani’s meteoric rise, from a little-known state lawmaker to one of the most visible Democratic figures in the country, marks a generational and ideological turning point in American politics.

He defeated former Democratic Governor Andrew Cuomo, who ran as an independent after losing the party nomination. Cuomo, 67, sought a political comeback four years after resigning amid scandal, portraying Mamdani as a “radical leftist” whose economic proposals were “dangerous.”

Mamdani’s platform includes raising taxes on corporations and the wealthy to fund ambitious social programs like frozen rents, free childcare, and free city buses. His victory has sparked unease on Wall Street, with many executives wary of a socialist governing the global financial capital.
