WATCH: Trump says Mamdani ‘not capable, good line of BS’

President Trump commented on the disappointing mayoral race in New York City, saying that leading candidate Zohran Mamdani — a self-described Muslim communist — isn’t capable of running America’s greatest city, and that the federal government has plenty of ways to keep him in line.
