Mamdani's controversial stances have raised concerns:

• Refusal to condemn "globalize the intifada": This phrase has alarmed many, particularly within the Jewish community.
• Proposed rent freeze policy: Business leaders express worry over the potential economic consequences.

Rapaport, a vocal Israel supporter, called Mamdani a "terrorist supporter" and a "socialist bull---- artist." He emphasized the importance of New Yorkers staying and fighting for their city.

Mamdani has yet to respond to Rapaport's comments. The situation highlights the strong reactions and concerns surrounding Mamdani's candidacy.
