President Donald Trump and New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani will sit down Monday at Gracie Mansion, testing a budding working relationship even as the two remain deeply divided over immigration and other major policy fights.
Trump and Mamdani have continued to trade criticism while also finding areas where they can work together, most notably during a cordial February Oval Office meeting focused on New York housing. But their policy fights have continued, with Mamdani challenging Trump’s immigration policies and Trump repeatedly criticizing the mayor’s agenda.
“Sadly, Mayor Mamdani is DESTROYING New York! It has no chance!” the president wrote in April, a day after Gov. Kathy Hochul unveiled a proposal backed by Mamdani to impose a new tax on New York City second homes valued at more than $5 million.
