    Well, he DID like him. For a while.

    Trump likes winners. But if they make HIM look like a loser, not so much.

      Zohran Mamdani is one of the most popular politicians in the country, atm.

        Yeah, and Trump is one of most unpopular. People compare the two and Trump looks bad in comparison and he hates that. So he badmouths Zohran now.

        Nobody stays in Trumps good books forever. Certainty not if they outshine him.

          I’ve seen more the opposite. Trump sees Mamdani as popular and keeps trying to hitch a wagon to his star. He did a congratulatory call, gave Mamdani a few concessions coming into office, and even invited him to the WH for a photo op.
