Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic candidate in the upcoming New York City mayoral race, denounced President Donald Trump’s threat to arrest him over his pledge to push back on Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raids, calling the President's comments “an attack on our democracy” and “intimidation.”

After President Donald Trump threatened to have Zohran Mamdani, the newly elected Democratic nominee for New York mayor, deported if he blocks Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids in New York, Mamdani responded forcefully.

Mamdani, the Democratic nominee for mayor of New York City and a state Assembly member, called the threat "an attack on our democracy."
