Later, another reporter pressed Mamdani to clarify his response to the question. “Are you affirming that you think that President Trump is a fascist?”

“I’ve spoken about—” Mamdani began to reply, before Trump interrupted him.

“That’s OK, you can just say yes. It’s easier than explaining it. I don’t mind,” Trump said, patting Mamdani on the arm.

100% agree. It's pro wrestling to him. I absolutely think he sees Mamdani as someone who is playing the game like him. Mamdani is very good at finding common ground and has talked to a lot of Trump voters so I'm betting that it was a very like I don't hate you, I just wanted to win the election and deliver for New York and I think we can figure out ways to do that. I think it's why he likes Bernie too cuz Bernie isn't above giving Trump his flowers when he's proposing something good for his people (however disingenuous it may actually be).
