Jon Voight Calls on Trump to Block Mamdani’s Mayoral Win: “This City Will Turn Into a Forbidden Place of Darkness”

Actor Jon Voight has called on President Donald Trump to intervene following Zohran Mamdani’s recent victory in the New York City mayoral race. In a video posted to social media, Voight warned that Mamdani’s leadership could turn the city into a “socialist cr** city” and urged Trump to take action immediately.

Voight described Mamdani, 34, as a threat to New York, claiming the mayor-elect could transform the city into a “forbidden place of darkness.” “The mayor that has taken over New York City is a Muslim that’s going to take down the city that never sleeps, the city of life’s dreams, this city that our ancestors brought forth in prosperity and greatness and liberty,” Voight said.

He added that the city could become a “virtual refugee shelter for the radical Muslim ideology” and called the situation “the most dangerous time for our citizens of New York.”

The actor argued that Mamdani’s policies would undermine the rights of business owners and residents. “This 35-year-old mayor has no right dictating the rules of socialism. For a city built on our highest principles with brick and stone by hardworking Americans. This must be stopped and his mayoralty should be terminated immediately,” he said.

Voight directly addressed Trump in the video, insisting that only the president could prevent Mamdani from implementing his plans. “We, the people, have put our trust in the president of the United States, Donald J. Trump. He and only he can stop this horror as this Mayor Mamdani will try to destroy New York’s wealth and turn it into a socialist crap city. Let this be a warning to the people,” Voight said.

The mayor-elect, Mamdani, recently defeated Andrew Cuomo and Curtis Sliwa to secure his win. Voight, a long-time Trump supporter, has previously served as a “special ambassador to Hollywood” alongside Sylvester Stallone and Mel Gibson, and he received the Presidential Medal of Arts from Trump in 2019.
