Andrew Cuomo is counting on President Donald Trump and top Republicans to tell the party faithful to vote for him if they want to stop Democratic nominee Zohran Mamdani from becoming the next mayor of New York.

Cuomo even thinks the president could tell GOP voters to not support the Republican nominee, Curtis Sliwa, in the November election. The alternative, he says, is a democratic socialist leading the nation’s biggest city.

“We can minimize [the Sliwa] vote, because he’ll never be a serious candidate,” Cuomo told the crowd at a Hamptons fundraiser Saturday, according to audio obtained by POLITICO. “And Trump himself, as well as top Republicans, will say the goal is to stop Mamdani. And you’ll be wasting your vote on Sliwa. So I feel good about that.”

Publicly, Cuomo — a Democrat and the former governor of New York — has shunned the idea of getting any help from Trump. Cuomo said he’d decline an endorsement, and denied a New York Times report that he’d spoken with the president about the race.

But Cuomo seemed hopeful for the president’s help behind closed doors, speaking to the more Trump-friendly crowd gathered at media mogul Jimmy Finkelstein’s home in Southampton — the ultra-wealthy Long Island enclave 80 miles east of New York City.

I would demand from him that he endorse Vance in 2028 as a start to negotiations. End the negotiations if he says no.

Let New York City have whom they choose and let them deal with the consequences.

Maybe if Cuomo wasn’t such a TDS infected governor who killed senior citizens, and actually did something to help the citizens of New York, then he’d be able to win the election without anyone’s help.

No, 2028 is too far away and too easy for him to renege on that endorsement 3 years from now.

Get him to agree to cooperate with ICE in exchange for an endorsement. Or at minimum, get out of the way and let ICE do what they need to do without city officials attempting to obstruct and undermine ICE's operations.

But no one gets to leave NYC from this day forward. They stay and rot with it. They can't move out to the other counties and they definitely cannot move to another state.

Trump would be better off letting NYC vote in the communist that endorsing a fricking Cuomo! At the very least, NYC will learn a very painful lesson.

Trump needs to go on the attack with Adam’s and Sliwa and get those retards out of the race. They can’t win and will deliver NYC to Mamdani if they stay in the race. At this point Coumo is the best option to defeat Mamdani if the clowns get out. The money folks need to get the dollars right.
