Yeah I don't understand this situation at all.

It’s very simple, Trump core value is winning at all costs. He likes winners, and people who are popular.

Mamdani might be a Muslim but he does check off all other boxes:

He is well liked

Charismatic

Well spoken

Has a plan

People forget how much Trump liked Trudeau, inside he likes handsome, charismatic men.
