President Trump once again showered Mayor Mamdani with compliments, even after the mayor issued sharp attacks on Trumps actions publicly and directly to the president.
In a Tuesday morning appearance on right-wing radio host Sid Rosenbergs morning show, Trump acknowledged his political differences with Mamdani, but said he gets along very well with the mayor.
I think hes got a really good personality, the president said. I think hes got tremendous assets, but hes got some things
policy, concepts, that really havent worked over the last 10,000 years.
The complimentary comments echo a remarkably friendly White House meeting between Trump and Mamdani in November following the mayors general election victory. During that session, the president showered Mamdani with compliments and said hed do what he could to help the mayors administration. The meeting marked the start of what some observers are calling an unlikely political bromance.
