President Trump is never afraid to tell it like it is. In an interview with Fox Business’ host Maria Bartiromo, Trump discussed the sad state of New York saying the city is “like a ghost town” after being ravaged by the Coronavirus pandemic. The Big Apple has seen a major spike in violent crime, increased homelessness, and cleanliness due to its Democrat Mayor Bill De Blasio.

Later in the interview, the conversation shifted towards Trump’s son, and the President was asked if he might run for mayor in the next election. President Trump truthfully replied, “no, I hope not because he couldn’t win as a Republican he wouldn’t have a chance.”

According to Fox News:

“It’s all Democrat-run cities,” Trump continued. “The only way it’s going to come back is you’re going to have to find a young version of Rudy Giuliani. Otherwise, it’s not because they have all these lefties in New York running for office and they use their criminal system.”

Giuliani has often been credited for helping to make New York City safer in the mid-1990s, bringing it out of a down period that took place under Democratic leadership.

Despite claiming that a Giuliani-type mayor is needed, Trump does not expect to see one any time soon because he does not believe a Republican could get elected there now — not even his own son.

Gov. Andrew Cuomo has even recently criticized the current state of the city under the leadership of fellow Democrat Mayor Bill de Blasio.

The New York governor has even threatened to bring in the National Guard to help restore New York City, a request de Blasio has repeatedly denied.
