'I'll be cheering for him': Trump has 'great' meeting with NYC mayor-elect Mamdani

US President Donald Trump and New York City mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani, two stark political opposites, held a surprisingly warm and conciliatory meeting at the White House. Despite a history of trading insults, Trump unexpectedly praised Mamdani, stating, "I'll be cheering for him," and downplaying his previous name-calling. Mamdani focused on their shared purpose of serving New Yorkers, emphasizing the city's cost-of-living crisis and finding common ground. Throughout the meeting, Trump often interjected with humor to defuse tense questions from reporters, helping maintain a positive tone.
