Addressing the America Business Forum Miami in Florida on Wednesday, a day after Mamdani, an Indian-origin Democratic socialist, was elected as New York City`s first Muslim and South Asian mayor, Trump said when he was elected to his second term in office on November 5 last year, the American people had "restored" their sovereignty but "lost a little bit" of it with the mayoral election on Tuesday

"But we will take care of it. Don`t worry about it," he said, warning, "you watch what happens in New York, terrible... I hope it doesn`t happen, but you`re going to see it"

"...and Mandami, whatever the hell his name is in New York... thinks it`s wonderful to have men playing in women`s sports," Trump said, drawing boos and jeers from the audience

Trump, who had earlier warned that Mamdani`s victory would bring a "complete and total economic and social disaster" to New York City, accused Democrats of installing a communist in the largest US city

"If you want to see what Congressional Democrats wish to do to America, just look at the result of yesterday`s election in New York, where their party installed a communist as the mayor of the largest city in the nation," he said

The US president said after Tuesday`s results, "the decision facing all Americans could not be more clear. We have a choice between communism and common sense. Does that make sense to you? Common sense? It`s common sense or communism"

He said communism hasn`t worked in the past

"Our opponents are offering an economic nightmare. We`re delivering an economic miracle," Trump said, adding that while he used to warn against electing socialists, "we skipped socialist and put in a communist instead"

The Republican leader said his opponents are hell bent on turning America into a communist Cuba, socialist Venezuela, and "you see what happened to those places"

Cautioning that Democrats have become "so extreme", Trump quipped that Miami could soon become a "refuge" for those fleeing communism in New York City
