\n President Trump\u2019s threat to defund New York City over \u201clawlessness\u201d has erupted into a major campaign issue in the hot Staten Island congressional race pitting first-term Democratic Rep. Max Rose against Republican rival Assemblywoman Nicole Malliotakis.<\/p>\n

Rose immedia<\/a>tely blasted out a release opposing Trump\u2019s provocative plan to yank funds from the city shortly after The Post broke the story about the White House memo Wednesday night.<\/p>\n

Malliotakis \u2014 who is backed by Trump in a bid to dethrone Rose \u2014 endorsed the president\u2019s plan Thursday.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t care whether you\u2019re a Democrat or a Republican, defunding was wrong then and it\u2019s wrong now. Stop playing politics with people\u2019s lives and put our city and our country first,\u201d said Rose, a military veteran who served in Afghanistan.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs the president threatens to join Mayor de Blasio in defunding the police, Nicole Malliotakis is nowhere to be found,\u201d Rose said in a release issued Thursday morning.<\/p>\n

Minutes later, Malliotakis, a state assemblywoman whose district overlaps with the 11th CD encompassing southern Brooklyn as well as Staten Island, app<\/a>lauded Trump\u2019s defunding plan and instead took aim at what she called the city\u2019s anti-policing policies and other wasteful spending by the de Blasio administration.<\/p>\n

\u201cPresident Trump is sending a clear message to Bill de Blasio and New York City\u2019s left-wing elected officials; you can\u2019t break federal laws with radical far left policies and squander billions in tax dollars on pet projects like Thrive NYC, then defund the NYPD with expectations that the federal government will bail you out,\u201d Malliotakis said in a statement.<\/p>\n

\u201cFederal dollars need to come with commitments and restrictions to ensure that the taxpayers\u2019 money is being spent on its intended purposes. The mayor needs to clamp down on lawlessness, restore the plainclothes anti-crime unit and the billion dollars he took from the NYPD. In Congress, I\u2019ll fight to restore funding to the NYPD and fiscal responsibility to our city.\u201d<\/p>\n

Both Gov. Andrew Cuomo and Mayor Bill de Blasio slammed Trump\u2019s threat to defund the city during a recession triggered by the coronavirus pandemic. The mayor said he\u2019ll sue Trump if the president following through on his defunding threat.<\/p>\n

Rose scoffed at Malliotakis for backing Trump\u2019s plan.<\/p>\n

\u201cNicole Malliotakis would rather bankrupt her own city than stand up to her own party. Let\u2019s be clear: it\u2019s no longer just Bill de Blasio putting our safety and economy at risk, now it\u2019s Nicole Malliotakis, too. Every single one of these frauds has to go,\u201d the congressman said.<\/p>\n

Rose has been a critic of fellow Democrat de Blasio, who is unpopular in the more conservative 11th CD. Malliotakis has sought to tie Rose to de Blasio.<\/p>\n

Police unions who\u2019ve endorsed Malliotakis said it\u2019s Rose who is on the wrong side of the funding fight.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo much spin it makes our heads hurt. @NMalliotakis has always held NYC mayor and other Democratic `leaders\u2019 accountable for their failed policies, just like the president is doing,\u201d the NYC PBA tweeted in response.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou\u2019ve spent too much time marching with the real #Defund The Police fanatics,\u201d the PBA said, referring to Rose marching in an anti-police brutality protest in June following the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis.<\/p>\n

The Rose-Malliotakis contest is considered one of the most competitive House races in the country.\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
