Mamdani is not even in office yet so there’s no open conflict right now.

The minute he feels threatened or belittled, Trump will send out vulgar messages like always.

I just can't understand it at all.

When something goes completely off piste
like this, on both parts, I get confused.

I don't like things that make no sense whatsoever.

Sat Nov 22, 2025, 01:36 AM
Nov 2025

He wants ICE and NG to stay the hell out of NYC. He wants federal support for the nearly 9 million people of the city if needed. . Get your pic taken. Say a few nice things that don't sell out your soul. Don't kiss the ring. It is not a big price to pay.

Will Mamdani get what he went for? Unlikely. I suspect he knows that. He's a smart man. Like the Democratic mayors and governors before him, Trump will step on him for the slightest made up reason. But no one can say he didn't try.

Just days after making history as New York City’s first Muslim mayor-elect, Zohran Mamdani is now facing an unprecedented threat: the President of the United States wants to strip him of his citizenship.


The POTUS – who at the time called the mayor-elect a “nut job” – also echoed baseless claims that Mamdani is in the country unlawfully.


“Self-proclaimed New York City Communist, Zohran Mamdani, who is running for Mayor, will prove to be one of the best things to ever happen to our great Republican Party,” Trump wrote on Truth Social, according to CNBC. “He is going to have problems with Washington like no Mayor in the history of our once great City.”


“Remember, he needs the money from me, as President, in order to fulfill all of his fake communist promises. He won’t be getting any of it,” he ranted over Mamdani – a self-proclaimed democratic socialist, not communist.

to people to their face and then screw them over the next day. I wouldn't take much out of this meeting other than Trump was in awe of Mamdani since he's always in awe of people who are good looking and have charisma which Mamdani has both. Plus Trump needs some good publicity to distract people from all of his scandals and this serves as a good distraction for him.
