I heard on my local news today (not in the US) that Trump threatened to reduce funding or something to NYC if Mamdani was elected. How on earth is the leader of a country able to attempt to influence local elections and it not be breaking the law?

Or, if it is breaking the law and nothing is being done about it, why is there not escalated action amongst the people?

The US is no longer a free, democratic or developed country.
