Wayne Allyn Root had a particularly severe meltdown over Zohran Mamdani winning the New York City mayoral primary. he ranted in his June 28 WorldNetDaily column:
I was born and raised a Jewish New Yorker. I graduated from New York’s Columbia University. I spent my 20s in Manhattan. I loved New York City.
But now the unthinkable has happened. A politician with a combination that I’d never thought possible in America is in position to run New York City. Here’s the unthinkable combination:
A radical communist AND radical Muslim, pro-Hamas, Jew-hater has won the Democrat primary for mayor of New York.
Zohan Mamdani.
Root then despaired that New Yorkers are too stupid (and too non-white) not to elect Mamdani:
This isn’t your father’s Democrat Party [sic], nor is this your father’s New York City.
First, there are very few reasonable Democrat voters left – certainly not in NYC. Today’s breed of Democrat is a mix of radical, extreme, un-American, communist traitor – mixed with pro-Hamas, Jew-hating, modern-day Nazis. There is no coming back from this brand of Democrat.
Secondly, the New York City I grew up in and around no longer exists. Because of open borders and unchecked illegal immigration, New York City is now like a foreign nation.
Nowadays, an American-born citizen on the streets of NYC is just a rumor!
And many of today’s foreign-born New Yorkers are radical Muslims who hate Jews and preach “global intifada,” which means the destruction of America and Israel and Islamic world domination, which includes replacing our U.S. Constitution with Sharia law.
You know, people like Zohran Mamdani.
He then declared that his main hope in the race is for President Trump to intervene on the behalf of other candidates such as Curtis Sliwa and current mayor Eric Adams:
Our best hope is Andrew Cuomo dropping out of the race (he’s on an independent ballot) and President Donald Trump giving a major government job to either Adams or Sliwa, thereby leaving only one normal, non-insane candidate to beat Mamdani, so the vote isn’t split.
Other than that, the odds are very high that “The Big Apple” will soon be rotten to the core – literally infested with worms and fungus.
A Mamdani victory will be the death of New York City in so many ways.
Forget that NYC with Mamdani as mayor will become the magnet for every illegal alien in America. Millions will come.
Forget that NYC will become a third-world craphole just like Gaza.
Forget that the city will become infested with “no-go zones” like those Muslim neighborhoods seen throughout Europe – so dangerous that even police won’t dare go in.
Forget that the health care system will be overwhelmed and destroyed.
Forget that Mamdani wants to defund the police and ban all guns. Quite a combination to leave the citizens helpless.
Forget that Mamdani wants to spend taxpayer money on Soviet-style government grocery stores and transgender surgeries for young boys and girls.
But the really big question is, who will be left to pay all the bills?
Root concluded by likening Mamdani to a terrorist: “If Mamdani wins in November, God help New York City. Get ready for third-world craphole Gaza and “no-go zones” inside America. Boy, have New Yorkers forgotten the lessons of 9/11.”
Root spent his July 5 column in a wild-eyed rant that Mamdani must be deported:
I’ve had an epiphany. President Donald Trump always aims for the stars. We need to do more than just defeat Zohran Mamdani, the New York City Democrat mayoral candidate.
President Trump, Attorney General Pam Bondi and the DOJ need to start the process to DEPORT HIM.
I’ve studied the topic of “denaturalization.” This is when the U.S. government revokes the citizenship of immigrants (naturalized citizens) who lied to enter our country.
It can be done. We can deport Zohran Mamdani. It’s time to start the process.
Say it with me, “DEPORT MAMDANI!”
Root offers no actual evidence to justify deporting Mamdani, only his “opinions and gut instincts”:
I have no “inside info.” These are only my opinions and gut instincts, but I guarantee you Mamdani:
A) Lied during his citizenship about his true views about America.
B) Is a communist out to destroy America and all the things that make us great.
C) Is a racist who hates white Americans.
D) Is a Jew-hater who promotes hate speech.
E) Is a supporter of a terrorist organization – Hamas.
That’s five different and substantial grounds to denaturalize and deport Mamdani out of this country.
Root then gamed things out further:
Now maybe Trump has a different agenda. Maybe he wants Mamdani to win the NYC mayor’s race. After all, this guy is a gift from Heaven for the GOP. His views are so radical, and offensive, and frightening to the average normal American, his election as mayor of NYC could very well propel the GOP to not only a 2026 congressional midterm victory but another GOP presidential landslide in 2028.
In other words, when Americans see how crazy this Jew-hating, pro-Hamas communist is, they will run for the exits. And that could be the fuel to fire up the GOP base and add millions of new voters to our side.
That’s one way of looking at this situation.
Then there’s this scenario. This guy is dangerous. He is here for one reason – to destroy our country, capitalism and everything we hold dear. And once he wins for mayor of the largest city in America, there is no way to know if his crazy, radical, extreme brand of communism, covered up by a big smile and a friendly personality, can lead to much bigger things.
See Barack Hussein Obama.
I’m a believer in never letting a fire get started in the first place. After all, one spark from a homeless person’s campfire, or from a bitter illegal alien, or from an intentional arsonist, led to the great Pacific Palisades, California, fire of last January – burning thousands of homes to the ground. You never know where a spark will lead.
In fact, the cause of the Palisades fire is still being investigated but was likely caused by re-ignition of a previous fire — meaning that it was likely not caused by the “homeless person,” “bitter illegal alien” or “intentional arsonist” of Root’s imagination. Still, Root concluded with one more rant:
The man is crazy, radical, extreme and dangerous. He is also a foreigner who doesn’t belong in the USA with crazy views like that.
I guarantee you Mamdani lied on his citizenship questionnaire and in his citizenship interview. He never disclosed his communist views, racist white-hating views, Jew-hating views, pro-Hamas views, or support of global intifada.
If he had exposed and explained his radical un-American views, he would A) never have been allowed into our country and B) certainly never have been naturalized and allowed to become a citizen.
These are clear-cut grounds for denaturalization, expulsion and deportation back to Uganda – where he clearly belongs.
This is how to send a powerful message:
America is for people who love and value and appreciate this country and our values. Don’t come here to change or ruin or destroy our country. If you hate America, Americans, white people, Jews, the U.S. Constitution and capitalism, you’re not welcome.
[…]Let’s send Mamdani packing back to Uganda. The thing is, I’m betting they don’t want him either.
Yep, a total Mamdani meltdown.
