"I had a productive meeting with President Trump this afternoon. I'm looking forward to building more housing in New York City. The newspaper's headline was "Trump to city: let's build," followed by the subheadline "Backs New Era of Housing. Trump delivers 12,000+ homes, most since 1973." The mockup was made in the same style as the infamous Daily News headline about President Gerald Ford in 1975: "Ford to city: drop dead.""
"One X user wrote: "All those frothing 'Mr. Mamdani got elected with a lot of promises, now let's see how he plans to enact them' op-eds and he just figured out the infinite money glitch like two months into the job." In another meme, captioned "art of the deal" - a reference to Trump's book - an X user weighed in on how Mamdani secured the release of a Columbia student from ICE detention and successfully pitched a housing development plan to Trump."
New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani visited the White House to meet with President Trump, bringing mockup newspapers designed to appeal to the president. The front pages featured headlines like "Trump to city: let's build" and "Backs New Era of Housing," styled after the famous 1975 Daily News headline about President Ford. During the meeting, Mamdani successfully pitched a housing development plan to Trump and secured the release of a Columbia student from ICE detention. The photo of Trump holding the flattering newspaper mockups generated widespread social media discussion, with users praising Mamdani's political strategy and effectiveness in achieving concessions despite their opposing political ideologies.
