President Donald Trump welcomed New York City mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani to the White House, marking a rare encounter between two political adversaries. Despite their history of disagreements, Trump greeted Mamdani warmly. During the meeting, Mamdani reiterated his criticism of United States support for Israel's actions in Gaza, a claim that Trump and Israeli officials have consistently rejected. The exchange underscored deep divisions between the two leaders on foreign policy, immigration, and economic matters.
