Cuomo financial support in NYC mayoral race features a number of players from Trump world

Since launching his mayoral campaign this month, Andrew Cuomo has largely refrained from the sharp criticism of President Trump that has marked the rhetoric of many of his opponents, and some Trump supporters are opening up their wallets for the former governor.

Cuomo’s nascent mayoral campaign has already received nearly $20,000 in contributions from Trump donors and associates, including a prominent conservative social media influencer who recently helped host a fundraiser for the former governor, according to a Daily News review of city and federal filings.

The “Women for Cuomo” fundraiser on March 7 was co-hosted by Tanya Zuckerbrot, a nutritionist with a large social media following who has been a vocal Trump surrogate and attended the president’s inaugural ball in January.

Donation records show Zuckerbrot gave $2,100, the legal max, to Cuomo’s mayoral campaign in conjunction with the event in Manhattan.
