President Donald Trumps loyal MAGA influencers have a lot to be fearful of when it comes to Zohran Mamdanis preemptive Democratic primary win for mayor in New York City on Tuesday.
From promised rent freezes to city-owned grocery stores, the progressive, Uganda-born candidate is rising in the ranks without the help of massive super PACS like disgraced former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo.
However, its not Mamdanis lack of lawsuits surrounding sexual assault or COVID-19 death cover-ups that have the likes of Laura Loomer and Charlie Kirk shaking behind a keyboard. Rather, the two are turning to the tried-and-true Islamophic approaches they know well to attack the 33-year-old making waves across the Big Apple.
For self-proclaimed Islamophobe Loomer, Trump's shadow tweeted Tuesday that Mamdani "hasn't even been a US citizen for 10 years. He is literally supported by terrorists."

What if Jim Jones was elected president?
What if David Koresh was elected president?
That's what happened when people elected Donald tRump for president.
When Cult Leaders like tRump are allowed to be free, people get hurt & die!
