Mamdani wants to siphon money off the NY elite for populist reasons. Trump wants to siphon money off the NY elite because they rejected him and he’s a vengeful little bitch. Mamdani could easily charm Trump by pointing out that his motives will harm Trump’s enemies.

Mamdani needs to float the idea of trumpcare and trumpbucks for MFA and UBI. Point out using his name like that will last well beyond his life and would replace Obamacare, so he would like that.

Trumpcare and Trumpbucks. The right decisions for the RIGHT people.

Excuse me while I wash my hands.

Trump is dumb and parrots the last person he talks to. Put him in a room with Luigi and we might get Medicare for all.

Put him in a room with Luigi.

What are you implying? Luigi did nothing.

But maybe this time, he would!

Trumps head just did that. Musta put a bullet up his nose as a kid and it just went off while he was chatting with Luigi in that sealed room.

I’m quoting the poster, but you are right. As a ward of the state, it would be an unusual punishment, if not cruel.

Right yes of course

Trump doesn’t want to remain exiled to Florida.

Trump has dementia, which makes him extremely suggestible. That’s on top of being dumb, as another reply mentioned.

You can see it most clearly with regards to Ukraine: he meets in person with Putin, and does pro-Russia things. Then he meets in person with Zelensky, and does pro-Ukraine things. Rinse and repeat.
