Zohran Mamdani has spoken out about his unexpected love fest with Donald Trump, stressing that he still considers the MAGA leader a “fascist” and a “despot.”
“Everything that I’ve said in the past, I continue to believe,” the New York City mayor-elect told NBC’s Meet the Press Sunday. “I’m not coming into the Oval Office to make a point or make a stand. I’m coming in there to deliver for New Yorkers.”
After trading fierce insults both ahead of and after Mamdani’s sweeping victory at the polls earlier this month, Mamdani and Trump stunned the nation Friday with a White House meeting that could not, by any measure, have been more cordial.
