If a narrow band of common ground exists, then it should be occupied for the benefit of all. No one holds a monopoly on good ideas.

Me waiting for the first good Communist idea….

Agree, That said I don't see them working together on many things. One is a true blue socialist, and the other an Alpha capitalist. Not much to work on.

They didn’t tear down the Berlin Wall until Reagan’s policies of isolationism forced them to.

Well, of course. But they still did it.

I don't know if it's wise to help the socialist to do a good job in NYC. It'll show that socialism isn't so bad which we all know it is.

He's wondering how he'll make Trump pay the jizya. WTF is wrong with ALL of you who, if not outright applauding this meeting, are essentially agreeing that it's a good thing? This is a fuc freaking Muslim one step closer to the real goal, the White House.

That little commie Muslim (such a contradiction in terms if ever there was one) will smile and lie through his teeth, saying anything he thinks will advance the caliphate. Screw him. I've never wished death on anyone, but that evil little gnome needs to be eliminated somehow. It would be much better if it were by legal means.

Once we start accepting these circumstances, we are doomed as a free republic.

Yep. Not a good look for Trump. His ego is his biggest impediment. He wants to be liked by everyone, even those who would like to see him and his family killed, like Mamdani.

Why in the hell would you?? Why would any rational human being? I'm still scratching my head in disbelief that the little commie was elected. We have raised a couple of generations of complete idiots.

Yeah, that concerns me, too, but if you were Trump, what would you do? I'm unsure what the right answer is.

If Trump fights him, and NYC gets worse, Trump will be blamed. If Trump helps, and Mamdani is a success, Mamdani will get the credit.

I had that same thought. Trump is perhaps letting his love for NYC override his common sense.

Agreed… DJT isn’t going to do anything to hurt his town. He has too many friends and too much history in NYC to let that happen.

Personally I don’t have a problem with him being cordial to the enemy. As long as Trump doesn’t forget it’s his job to put the enemy down I don’t have a problem with it.

My Papaw used to raise hogs. He would feed them, baby them, treat them like pets but come fall he would put a bullet in their head and never give it a second thought. That’s what I expect from Trump when it comes to Mamdani.

Damn straight.

Blame the parents. Public education is bad enough as it is.

Meh, personally, I don't like it. I agree he did exactly that, but I'm not so sure the reward justifies the risk.

It rubs me the wrong way for our POTUS to throw open his arms in welcome to a self-avowed socialist—read: commie—who also follows a pedophile prophet. That is far closer to the enemy than I would prefer, and I view anyone who follows either ideology as at least antithetical to my, and our, well-being if not as an outright enemy seeking to destroy our way of life.

Historically, the mayor of NYC has always been closely associated with the POTUS.

Narcissists gonna narciss...

As much as I support him, I hold no illusions about his personality. He's a typical New Yorker. There's both some beneficial and negative aspects in that, I suppose. Many of my family members came through Ellis Island and eventually settled in New york City or in Jersey somewhere and they weren't all bad.

That's why he's POTUS and I'm not.

The little commie is probably still reeling from winning. I'm sure he never expected to be elected on his first try. Or, that he would be standing beside his arch enemy, with a shiteating grin on his face, while symbolically being patted on the back by him.

Historically, POTUS was dealing with somewhat rational people whose most compelling base motivations were driven by greed.

This could be something entirely different. We could now be dealing with a central authority position being occupied by an invader, a usurper, whose methods can't be challenged because he and his fellow invaders learned how to utilize our very own legal system—moreover, our entire system of governance—against us.

At the turn of the century, not many saw this coming. There were some who speculated about it, some who made entirely accurate predictions and projections that largely went ignored because they were written off as the stuff of conspiracy theories, and there were those who scoffed at the idea.

Islam will not stop of its own accord in seeking global conquest. It will build its global caliphate by any means necessary. It should be obvious to anyone paying attention that it has established a strong foothold here, all the while many of its followers are leaching off of you and me, the Americans who actually work and pay the taxes that provide for those who would see us dead.

We are literally commiting cultural suicide.

nuts is taking the wait and see approach on this one ... not sure if he's playin' him or not ... also, DJT is hardly immune to protecting self-interests, Ja?!
