There are some interesting arguments being made for the legality of this. But overall I think these threats (or actual withholding of funds) from the fed or from states just hurts everyone.

>“I used to say we will never have a socialist in this country,” the president said, in part.
Why? Because the idea of everyone paying their fair share to improve society isn’t compatible with the wealthy rigging everything?

Election interference. Hes says hes talking to the Mayoral candidate, but hes really speaking to the voters. „Vote for him, and I’ll make youre life miserable.“. Thats a threat/intimidation to interfere with a legal vote. Every single voter in New York should report to the FBI election crimes coordinator that they have been threatened with a negative punishment by the sitting president, should they vote for Mamdani. Flood the fuckers with complaints.

The establishment in both parties freaking out this much over Mamdani is precisely how you know he’s **actually** for the working and middle class (not just projecting/saying solutions are hard), and will create good change. The only reason solutions are hard is because the establishment doesn’t want to piss off their corporate interests that have a stranglehold over everyone and have made society objectively worse over the last 50 years.

„behave or you’ll get a whipping“ is what he’d really like to say.

That’s a two way street. NYC should withhold federal funds. See who blinks first.

Everything trump says is a threat or a grand proclamation.

Then maybe the state of New York can stop paying the federal government.

Just like rapist that he is

Other than comments about taxing white people neighborhoods (which I don’t know anything about to make a meaningful comment), if Mamdani is under Trump’s skin, Mamdani must be doing, saying, acting in favor and the benefit of 99% of Earth’s general populace.

The same man who forced the DOJ to drop valid and strong charges against Eric Adams (causing many to quit) because he called it „election interference.“

Totally legal and totally cool
Not authoritarian at all
Bring it, orange fuckhead
What does saying that even mean?
So, like, if he sexually assaults women, or demands quid pro quos, or tries to steal an election? That kind of misbehaving?
Just some light mobster lingo from the president of the ~~United~~ States.
Fuck off Cheeto bitch
