Trump Meeting With NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani Sparks MAGA Backlash

Andrew Hoffstetter / REUTERS President Donald Trump’s lovefest with his favorite Democratic mayor has bitterly divided MAGA world.

Trump, 80, met with New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, 34, at the mayoral residence Gracie Mansion on Monday ahead of the United Nations General Assembly, triggering a civil war among the president’s loyalists.

“Every campaign commercial in 2026 is about how radical the left is,” Loomer wrote in another post .

“Why embolden them by meeting with them right before the midterms?” Rosenberg similarly declared that the meeting would hurt “all Republicans trying to win midterm elections.” “This punk does not deserve the president’s respect,” he wrote on X.

“Meeting with this Jew hater on Yom Kippur? OMG.

Please reconsider Mr.

President!” Rosenberg went a step further by personally raising his concerns with White House communications adviser Margo Martin.

“I can’t figure it out.
