Trump will meet with Mamdani at Gracie Mansion, the mayoral residence in Manhattan, a White House spokesperson confirmed to the Washington Examiner.
During their first meeting after Mamdani won, Trump described the encounter as cordial and said the then-mayor-elect would “surprise some conservative people.” That marked a contrast with Trump's description of Mamdani during the 2025 campaign as a “100% Communist Lunatic.”

Mamdani said all members of the press would be welcome at the event, despite the ongoing dispute over White House media access.
Their closed-door talks in Manhattan, which lasted around an hour, marked the pair's third public meeting since Mr. Mamdani swept the mayoral election last year.
