In reply to the discussion: Looks like Trump got tamed by Mamdani [View all]W_HAMILTON

When Trump says he agreed with them "much more than people thought," he's probably referring to their shared disdain for the terrible, horrible, no good, very bad Democratic Establishment (tm) and this is just more lip service to certain progressives to divide those on the left yet again like he was so successful in doing in 2016.
