Zohran Mamdani was grilled over his past rhetoric during a tense Oval Office showdown where President Donald Trump and the New York City mayor-elect sparred over past insults while trying to play nice for the cameras.
In a brief but charged media event on Friday, the two leaders met to discuss critical city issues like housing and public safety.
However, it was soon derailed by questions about Mamdani’s earlier harsh words labeling Trump as a “fascist” and his policies as “authoritarian,” Fox News reported.
The exchange kicked off when Fox News’s Jacqui Heinrich pressed Mamdani on whether he still views Trump as a “fascist.”
It’s a term he’s used before to describe the president’s agenda.
