Trump revives Mamdani attack, threatens to send in National Guard if NYC elects ‘communist’

SS: Threatening to send troops and steal funding from a city over who they choose to elect is un-American authoritarian behavior.

Punishing states and cities for political choices destroys our democracy and undermines the unity of the country.

When people say Trump acts like a dictator it is due to things like this. We should be able to pick who represents us and disagree politically about the path of the country without fear of retaliation through military crackdowns and funding theft.
