Mary Trump responded this week to New York Councilman Zohran Mamdani’s victory in New York City’s democratic mayoral primary.
Donald Trump’s niece slammed her cousin, the president’s eldest son, as “an evil man who accomplished nothing in his meaningless, painful little life.”
Democratic socialist and Muslim American Mamdani has been the target of a wave of right-wing attacks since the victory. If elected, he would become the first Muslim mayor of New York City.
Trump Jr.’s viral comment about X (formerly Twitter) reads: “I’m old and can remember when New Yorkers endure 9/11 instead of voting for it” with the title: “New York City has fallen.”
Speaking to broadcast host Dean Obeidallah, Mary Trump said: “One of the things I hate most about Donald, my uncle is how he makes people suffer with people like his sons. “Not because their views are important, but because millions of people listen to them because they have a platform for their relationship with Donald. ”
Mary Trump, who has been criticized by her uncle for years, warned that the attack on Mamdani was “very dangerous” and predicted that sulfuric acid would get worse as the mayor race “in ways we’ve never seen before.”
