OO00h..... sick burn!!! Trump calls Mamdani the "Liddle Communist" and threatens

to withhold federal funding from NY if he is elected. As Ron Filipkowski points out that would be an impeachable offense with any other president.


But since that's not going to happen (impeachment), maybe NY could withhold the money it sends to the federal government. Just a thought.

Turns out last month's manufactured division did Mandani more good than bad. trump's gotta go with tactic #2 now, names and names and more names. Because that's what real leaders do.

The is the same guy whose lips are attached to the ass of an ex-KGB agent, whose every whim he caters to. And, the same guy who takes a $10 Billion government stake in a private corporation (Intel.) And, who is doing everything he can to insert his government into the lives of its citizens in as many ways as he can. Unfortunately for him, most New Yorkers know this, and it his name-calling ain't gonna work on them.

the Federal government than it gets back. Same is true of most blue states. It's the red states that are subsidized by the Federal government.

Do we think he forgot? It happens, you know.

Or maybe his creative juices just ain't what they used to be.
