Mamdani meets Trump in surprise White House visit
WASHINGTON: New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani held an unannounced meeting with President Donald Trump at the White House, marking a striking encounter between two political opposites who have clashed sharply in recent months.
The meeting was not listed on the public schedule. No television cameras were invited into the Oval Office. Hours later, Mamdani described the interaction as “a productive meeting” and said he was “looking forward to building more housing in New York City.”
A photograph released by the mayor showed Trump seated behind the Resolute Desk holding two mock New York Daily News front pages. One was an authentic 1975 edition carrying the headline “Ford to City: Drop Dead.” The other was a fabricated page reading “Trump to City: Let’s Build,” crediting the president with backing a “New Era of Housing.”
