President Donald Trump<\/a> blasted Democrats for prolonging the government shutdown in an interview on Sunday, vowing to permanently eliminate what he called Democratic “welfare programs.”<\/p>\n

“The Democrats are kamikazes right now. They’re kamikaze pilots right now. They have nothing going. They have no future,” Trump said during an exclusive interview on “Sunday Morning Futures.<\/a>“<\/p>\n

Trump argued that Democrats lack strong leadership and viable candidates for upcoming elections. He said the shutdown stalemate gives him leverage to cut billions in programs Republicans have long wanted to eliminate.<\/p>\n

“They didn’t realize that that gives me the right to cut programs that Republicans never wanted \u2014 you know, giveaways, welfare programs,” he said. “And we\u2019re doing that. We\u2019re cutting them permanently.”<\/p>\n

The Trump administration claims that, under shutdown rules, it has the authority to freeze or suspend certain federal programs and projects.<\/p>\n

The shutdown, now nearing its third week, began after Democrats refused to approve a funding bill unless it included an extension of enhanced Affordable Care Act subsidies<\/a> set to expire in 2025. As a result, pay for hundreds of thousands of federal employees has been put on hold.<\/p>\n

Democrats argue that failing to act before open enrollment in November could leave millions of Americans facing higher premiums.<\/p>\n

The White House says Democrats are pushing billions for Medicaid coverage for illegal immigrants, which Trump warns would “jeopardize” Americans\u2019 healthcare.<\/p>\n

Trump also weighed in on the New York City mayoral race<\/a>, saying he believes the city could soon elect what he called a “communist mayor,” referring to Democratic nominee Zohran Mamdani.<\/a><\/p>\n

Mamdani, a state assemblyman from Queens who has described himself as a democratic socialist, received overwhelming support from younger voters en route to capturing the nomination. He is favored to win the three-way race against former Democratic New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo and Republican Curtis Sliwa.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“I watched him [Mamdani] a couple of times be interviewed, and he\u2019s pretty slick, but he doesn\u2019t have what it takes,” Trump said, warning that New York will be in “big trouble” if Mamdani wins.<\/p>\n

Trump has frequently criticized Mamdani for his stance on policing and business. Mamdani previously made comments calling the New York City Police Department “racist, anti\u2011queer & a major threat to public safety”<\/a> on social media in 2020. \u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Mamdani appeared last week on Fox News Channel’s “The Story,” where he apologized to the NYPD for his past remarks and addressed Trump directly, saying he is willing to partner with anyone to make New York City more affordable.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
