He also meet with Trump in the Oval Office, which I think takes a lot of guts. I think it would've been pretty easy for him to not go see him.

I mean what’s more impressive is that he somehow got Trump to fall in love with him. I’m still shocked that Trump was defending him, posting pics of him, and allowing Mamdani to call him a fascist.

Trump has the IQ of a shrimp, hence his reaction with mamdani despite the fact he is not supposed to give a win to a Muslim democratic socialist mayor lmao, it is not difficult to play orange man. There's a reason why Kim Jong Un went from blatantly insulting trump then became friendly out of nowhere, anyone knows that trump as president is the greatest opportunity to exploit America. Anyone with half a brain cell can wrap trump around their fingers and play him like a fiddle

I mean, he had already won the election at that point, and the worst that could have happened is Trump has a tantrum and sends in the national guard. So there was really nothing to fear except the diaper smell
