Donald Trump says Constantino is backed by "MAGA Warriors" including Rudy Giuliani in NY House race
“Anthony is strongly supported by many of the most Highly Respected MAGA Warriors in our Movement, including Mayor Rudy Giuliani and Roger Stone!”

Anthony Constantino, a newcomer seeking the Republican nomination for New York’s 21st congressional district, drew national attention after President Donald Trump publicly backed his campaign, citing support from figures such as former mayor Rudy Giuliani and political operative Roger Stone. In a recent interview with journalist Jake Lahut, Constantino was unable to identify the district’s most populated municipality, deferring to an artificial‑intelligence tool and using the term “super intelligence,” a phrase promoted by the president in an executive order. The conversation also revealed his limited grasp of basic budget categories and his dismissal of questions about state oversight of the regional transit authority. While the district leans heavily Republican, Democratic strategists view the race as a potential gain because of Constantino’s low profile; he will face Democrat Blake Gendebien in the November 3 election.
