New York City's mayoral candidates face a crucial decision on how to respond to President Trump's immigration actions as early voting nears. With rising protests against Trump's policies, especially after his military interventions in Los Angeles, candidates must articulate their positions. The presence of over 400,000 undocumented immigrants in NYC adds urgency, as some candidates express their readiness to protect the city's interests. Andrew Cuomo, leading in the polls, warns that similar interventions could occur in New York, recalling his own controversial decisions as governor during times of civil unrest.
"This is where the rubber meets the road," said Basil Smikle, highlighting the critical moment mayoral candidates face in standing up to Trump amid heightened immigration tensions.
"It will happen in New York," said Andrew Cuomo, predicting potential deployment of National Guard troops in response to immigration protests, indicating Trump's strategies.
