U.S. President Donald Trump met with New York City under Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani on Friday (November 21) and said he would feel “very, very comfortable” being in Mamdani’s leadership.
“I would feel very, very comfortable being in New York,” Trump said in the Oval Office, a dramatic turnaround from months of rhetoric and threats during Mamdani's mayoral campaign.
Trump also said, “We agree on a lot more than I really thought.”
Trump has previously threatened to pull federal funding from a Mamdani-led New York City, has suggested openness to sending in the National Guard and has threatened to arrest the mayor-elect, whom he’s repeatedly called a “communist.”
