Mayor Zohran Mamdani met with President Trump in Washington D.C. Thursday.
Mamdani posted on X, stating the meeting was “productive.”
This is at least the second time the pair has met and comes two days after Trump commented on Mamdani during the State of the Union, saying the Mayor was a nice guy with bad policies.
Trump also mentioned Mamdani’s hiring of emergency snow shovelers after the blizzard.
“They want people to shovel snow…they got hit hard…but if you apply for that job, you have to show two forms of ID and a Social Security card,” Trump said, levying one of his common criticisms regarding election security.
The meeting was not on Mamdani’s public schedule for Thursday, and the city would not provide details on the context of his conversation with Trump.
