    As far as I can tell Mamdani doesn’t really attack or even acknowledge his opponents unless he’s forced to do so. So I imagine the meeting was all about how Mamdani wants to fix New York by matching New Jersey’s tax rate and cleaning up the city council. I can see why Trump would try to ride that wave rather than fight it.

      You’re giving Trump a bit too much credit for thinking and planning. His dementia is really off the cliff, as in, scary bad. Everything he says or does is how he’s feeling in the moment. OR, what his handlers have carefully molded him to say or believe.
