New York – Mary Trump slammed Donald Trump Jr. for his reaction to New York Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani’s victory in the city’s Democratic mayoral primary.
She tore into her cousin, the former president’s eldest son, calling him “a vile human being who’s accomplished nothing in his meaningless, miserable little life.”
Mamdani, a Muslim American and democratic socialist, has faced a surge of right-wing attacks since his win. If elected, he would be New York City’s first Muslim mayor.
Trump Jr. reposted a viral comment on X, formerly Twitter, that said, “I’m old enough to remember when New Yorkers endured 9/11 instead of voting for it,” adding his own caption: “New York City has fallen.”
During an interview with radio host Dean Obeidallah, Mary Trump sharply criticized her cousin, saying, “One of the things I most resent about Donald, my uncle,” is that he’s exposed the public to people like his son “not because their opinions matter but because millions of people listen to them because they have a platform by virtue of their relationship with Donald.”
A longtime critic of her uncle, Mary Trump warned that the attacks on Mamdani are “extraordinarily dangerous” and predicted the hostility will escalate as the mayoral race becomes “nationalized in a way we may not have seen happen before.”
