Even as New York mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani's message resonates with national Democrats, party members in his home state remain hesitant to endorse him.

After being asked how he knows the Jeffrey Epstein list is a hoax, President Donald Trump blamed Democrats and said some “foolish Republicans fall into the net.”

Why it matters: Democrats have homed in on a strategy this week of squeezing Republicans on the issue as President Trump comes under fire from his own base.
