"You were about to answer. Then, President Trump sort of jumped in. And he said, That's okay. You can just say yes. It's easier than explaining it.' So, Mr. Mayor-Elect, just to be very clear, do you think that President Trump is a fascist? And after President Trump said that, I said, yes,' Mamdani said. So you do? Welker asked. That's something that I've said in the past, I say it today, Mamdani said."
"And I found in the meeting that I had with the president a productive one and a meeting that came back again and again to the central themes of the campaign that we ran, the cost of housing, cost of child care, the cost of groceries, the cost of utilities. And it showed that this is an opportunity to now start to deliver so that people can do more than just aspire to struggle in New York City,"
Zohran Mamdani met with President Donald Trump at the White House and affirmed that he regards Trump as a fascist. Mamdani called the meeting productive and said it repeatedly returned to campaign priorities: housing affordability, child care costs, grocery prices, and utility bills. Mamdani said the meeting created an opportunity to begin delivering solutions so New Yorkers can live in the city rather than merely struggle there. Mamdani emphasized addressing the needs of eight and a half million residents and indicated continued concern about whether threats to send troops to New York would be carried out.
