President Donald Trump and New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani struck an unexpectedly warm tone Friday after a private meeting at the White House, praising one another repeatedly and highlighting broad agreement on affordability, housing construction, and public safety.
“We’ve just had a great meeting, a really good, very productive meeting,” Trump said as the two men addressed reporters in the Oval Office. “We have one thing in common. We want this city of ours that we love to do very well.”
