WASHINGTON – US President Donald Trump met on Friday with New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani at the White House, downplaying recent tensions.<\/p>\n

Speaking to reporters after their meeting, both sides said they had a productive discussion centered around improving the nation”s biggest city.<\/p>\n

“The better he does, the happier I am,” Trump said Friday after the meeting.<\/p>\n

Mamdani said he is “really looking forward” to addressing the problem of affordability in one of the country’s most expensive cities.<\/p>\n

The friendly, upbeat tone marked a sharp contrast with the months of animosity between the two.<\/p>\n

In July, Trump threatened to have Mamdani arrested if he interfered with federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) operations.<\/p>\n

Trump’s threat came after Mamdani vowed to stop ICE agents from arresting those in New York who are in the country illegally.<\/p>\n

Mamdani won the New York City mayoral election on Nov 4, becoming the first Muslim mayor of the most populous city in the United States.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"US President Donald Trump and New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani shake hands as they meet in the…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":396562,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5122],"tags":[5229,405,403,5226,5225,5228,5227,277,67,586,132,5230,68,2969],"class_list":{"0":"post-396561","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-new-york","8":"tag-america","9":"tag-new-york","10":"tag-new-york-city","11":"tag-newyork","12":"tag-newyorkcity","13":"tag-ny","14":"tag-nyc","15":"tag-trump","16":"tag-united-states","17":"tag-united-states-of-america","18":"tag-unitedstates","19":"tag-unitedstatesofamerica","20":"tag-us","21":"tag-usa"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115592501016281118","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/396561","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=396561"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/396561\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/396562"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=396561"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=396561"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=396561"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
