    Haven’t seen trump beaming up at someone like that since him and ole Slick Willy were running around

    Edit:

    Someone needs to compile all of these in an album, they’re gold

    https://a57.foxnews.com/static.foxnews.com/foxnews.com/content/uploads/2025/11/1440/810/trump-mamdani-2.jpg?ve=1&tl=1

    Looks like he’s about to gobble it up right at Bill’s desk like the old days lmao

    Edit again:

    Dude just drooling waiting for him to walk in…

    I gotta watch the video now, this shits ridiculous

    More edit:

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ptzw8efnogo&pp=ygUQVHJ1bXAgbWFtZGFuaSBhcA%3D%3D

    The Associated Press video starts with a Blair Witch intro leading into an extreme close up of Trump’s neck vagina

    America’s officially jumped the shark.

    Last edit:

    Timestamp is 24:00, when asked if Mamdani was the future of the Democratic Party.

    It’s 2025, and trump and the chair of the DNC have both gone on record saying a 34 year old Muslim socialist is the future of the Dem party and meant it positively.

    Shit is getting wild, and it’s not slowing down.

        Yeah, they’re clearly walking in and setting up a tripod, was probably an accidental zoom even.

        Just fucking ridiculous it’s in the video.

        The whole thing is crazy, they just asked Mamdani if trump was a fascist…

        Mamdani tried to give a diplomatic answer, and trump just laughs and said “just say yes, it’s easier” and moves on with a smile.

        Like, I’ve legitimately never seen trump as president happier than this video. I’m 15 minutes in, and he hasn’t dozed off and when he doesn’t know an answer he just lets Mamdani do it.

        This is exactly why people shouldn’t resign in protest, people like trump are easily steered, and it’s better than leaving him surrounded by the worst of society if you can pull him back

          Trump laughing and blowing off being called a fascist looked like the way he was before he become president. He’s always been a raging asshole and narcissist, but he used to understand the value of using self-deprecation to play to a crowd.

            With an exception for talking about his supposed money. Anything remotely close to saying he didn’t have the money he claimed was met with extreme responses.

            People that actually have that much money don’t talk about it. They just use it to their advantage. The ones that don’t, try to flaunt the little they have and make it seem like they have a bunch more. Often being up to their eyeballs in various types of debt. This is almost certainly where Trump has been most of his life, hence all the random ventures to try and make quick cash from grifting.

        No, the lights are already balanced for broadcast at either of the standard temps, which they can flick a switch to. They’re setting a focus baseline. As the lens zooms in the depth of field gets narrower, so if you make it sharp there you know it’ll definitely be sharp when zoomed out.

    Trump just believes whatever he is told, so when miller told him to hate Mandani he did. Until he met him.

    And now maybe his base might see him for what he is

      Well, i like to monitor the insane circular firing squad that is r/conservative, and opinion seems split on this between “Trump likes literally anyone who talks nice to him” “Mamdani is a cultured immigrant who knows how to behave in polite society” (whew boy) and, of, course, the winner seems to be their constant and automatic refrain for whenever Trump does something stupid, unintelligible, or obviously directly opposed to their values: “4D Chess.”

      Between Epstein, MTG, Zohran and calling for the death sentence for dems saying troops are required to disobey illegal orders, that place has been looking like the grim reaper swept through every thread lol

      That’s how it feels to talk to a real person like Mamdani

    This one’s easy.

    Trump is happy in the top one because he’s the only narcissist in the room.

    Trump is unhappy in the bottom one because Elon is another malignant narcissist, who is stealing Trump’s spotlight.

    Musk has more money than Trump, and Musk doesn’t kiss ass.

    Mamdani isn’t a billionaire, and he knows how to play the room. He’s not a threat to Trump’s ego.

    Mamdani is a fucking wizard. I heard some of this press conference - trump was actually defending mamdani against both liberal press and fox news questions

    I want so badly to have been a fly on the wall for that meeting. But ultimately it does kind of make sense: they are both “anti-establishment” candidates in their own ways, and trump desperately needs a popularity boost.

      He is a master of the BIFF technique for dealing with narcissists for sure. Being friendly and disarming with people who think he’s literally sub-human, while not giving ground, is no easy or common skill.

      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.
