What kind of gift did Mamdani bring him? Was it solely flattery?

(1,032 posts)I still think Mamdani should rename 57th St to President Barack Obama Boulevard (where Trump Tower sits).

(53,889 posts)More flattery. Trump softens. And Stephen Miller is watching, horrified. And he can't stop it. Trump is off script.
Contrast this with Zelensky in the WH. No bombast. No J.D. Vance dressing Mamdani down.
You'll never see Trump yelling, "Don't try flattering me! I'm on to you!"
