Thank you.

Good afternoon, everyone.
4
This afternoon, President Trump and I met at Gracie Mansion to discuss the city we both are so fortunate to serve, New York City.
5
Each time the president and I speak, it is about the same topics, how to improve the lives of New Yorkers
6
and how to use the power of government to take on the cost of living crisis,
7
to grow our economy and to build a better, stronger New York.
8
Each day, millions of New Yorkers struggle to get by in a city where a decent life costs too much,
9
where a future of possibility and prosperity feels forever just one paycheck out of reach,
10
where dignity is not accorded to all but only afforded by some.
11
I have said time and again that I will work with anyone, no matter what party they belong to,
12
no matter how much we may disagree on other topics.
13
whoever has the power and the will to lift that weight off
14
New Yorkers backs.
15
At a time where hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers are asking the questions of how they can afford this city,
16
I appreciate the conversation the president
17
and I have had on the subject of how we can make
18
it easier to afford life in this great city that we call our home.
19
With that, we will take questions just before.
20
If the president, if you want to add any remarks.
21
Well, thank you very much, Mr. Mayor.
22
I've been at Gracie Mansion.
23
We were discussing quite a few times over the years, a lot.
24
And it sort of feels like a home.
25
And it's a special place, a very special, a beautiful place when you go inside.
26
And I've seen it with numerous different mayors.
27
And I said some great ones and some not so great ones.
28
So hopefully you're going to be a great one.
29
I'll be able to say you're going to be a great one.
30
And you're off to a start.
31
So I just want to thank the mayor for the invitation.
32
I'm in New York to do the United Nations tomorrow.
33
I have a lot of meetings right now, today, very important meetings with heads of different countries.
34
But this is like a little bit of old home week for me,
35
because so many things, we have done so many things from the beautiful home or house or building standing right behind me.
36
And if you have any questions, we would love to take them.
37
Thank you.
38
Thank you, Mr. President.
39
Thank you, Mr. Mayor.
40
We're going to start with N .J.
41
Burkett.
42
And please wait for the microphone.
43
Thank you.
44
Thank you.
45
Mr. President, Mr. Mayor, there aren't too many
46
Democrats who would roll out the red carpet for Donald Trump.
47
You did that today.
48
What tangible results, achievements could you point to from your relationship with the president?
49
You know, one of the focuses of the conversation the president
50
and I have been having is about the possibility of building more housing here in New York City.
51
We've spoken about Sunnyside Yard.
52
And it's a real pleasure
53
that just today we have agreed to set up a new level of
54
that conversation between our housing and operations team at City Hall and the White House team, because what we're speaking about is 12 ,000 homes,
55
30 ,000 jobs, the prospect of an entire new neighborhood in a city where housing is the number one cost.
56
And I appreciate the president, his interest in this.
57
And we also know the president not just as the leader of the country,
58
but also as someone who has built quite a lot of housing here in our city.
59
I don't know, Mr. President, you want to add anything?
60
SEN.
61
BERNIE SANDERS , Well, I can tell you that Sunnyside is a big job.
62
I have been watching that for 35 years.
63
Everybody has wanted to do something with Sunnyside Yards.
64
Well, we met at the White House a couple of times, but we met at the White House.
65
The mayor brought that up, the possibility of doing Sunnyside Yards.
66
It's a very, I would say, that was a very federal -oriented job.
67
You're going to need a lot of federal approvals and probably some federal money to do it.
68
But it's always been a great location.
69
I owned a building in Sunnyside.
70
It was a great building.
71
I know it very well.
72
So, when he mentioned Sunnyside Yards, they have been talking about developing that for 50 years.
73
So maybe they have a shot at doing it.
74
JUDY WOODRUFF.
75
Thank you.
76
Next, we will go to Jared in the first row but please wait for the microphone.
77
Mr. Mayor, Mr. President, this is the first time that a sitting president has visited Gracie Mansion in decades.
78
Mr. President, on the way here, you posted that this is one of your favorite places in the world.
79
Why is that?
80
And, Mr. Mayor, what did you show the president?
81
What did you want to see?
82
Well, I can say from my standpoint, I love New York, and this represents New York.
83
This is where the mayor lived and continues to live.
84
And we were discussing it a long time ago when you first got elected.
85
I said, well, you're going to move
86
because you were maybe having some doubts about moving him because it is a little bit on the luxurious side.
87
And I said, when you're the mayor, you have to live there.
88
So and he's done that.
89
And it was very nice inside, beautifully kept.
90
And it's a very, very representative place of New York, very important place.
91
We appreciate the president's commitment to the city.
92
And today, the president shared many of his memories of having been to Gracie Mansion before, having been out here as well on the lawn.
93
And we appreciated the conversation of how we can work together to deliver a lower cost of living for New Yorkers.
94
Thank you.
95
We'll go to Gloria next.
96
Thank you.
97
So Mr. President, you spoke about Sunnyside Yards.
98
Are you committing to supporting that project?
99
And it sounds like you also talked about affordability.
100
You have dismissed that in the past, but that is one of Mayor Mamdani's key agenda items.
101
So, did you talk about affordability, and did you...
102
Is there anything you can do for affordability for New Yorkers?
103
Well, I know a lot about affordability because I did that housing.
104
I did many, many low -income and moderate -income buildings over the years and had great success with it.
105
We have really...
106
It was very important.
107
I would think that Sunnyside would have to have a component, at least a pretty substantial component of exactly that.
108
So, yes, we discussed that.
109
If you do Sunnyside, I think you're going to have to have that kind of a component.
110
AMNA NAWAZIER, Thank you.
111
We're going to go to Laura.
112
And this will be the last question for the president.
113
Thank you.
114
Mayor, do you first?
115
What's your response to President Trump banning outlets from the White House grounds?
116
Did you challenge him at all about this in your meeting with him?
117
Historians and legal scholars have called it textbook authoritarianism.
118
And Mr. President, are you banning outlets like MSNOW, CNN and Politico in order to distract from the Iran war and high gas prices?
119
PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP, President of the United States,
120
I told the president that we're going to have all of the members of the press here on the lawn.
121
And that is something that I believe in, is everyone, no matter the opinion or the critique, that we engage.
122
I don't know, Mr. President.
123
PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP, President of the United States, it's interesting because they said they were going to boycott me, but they never boycott me.
124
So I wasn't very worried about that.
125
Look at all that press.
126
But, no, I'm not.
127
I'm only doing it because I think the press also is an obligation.
128
And, you know, I won in a landslide.
129
I won the election in a landslide.
130
I have done great things.
131
I have done a lot of great things.
132
I have settled eight wars.
133
We have the best economic numbers for the country in the history of our country.
134
We have $21 trillion pouring in, the biggest number ever, any country, was three.
135
Nobody has ever done what we have done.
136
I never get anything positive.
137
It's always negative, even having to do with the war, we have done so well.
138
We have told...
139
Look, they're not going to have a nuclear weapon, let me just put it that way, and they're not doing well.
140
They're not doing...
141
In fact, I have meetings on it today.
142
They're doing very poorly.
143
You would think that an outlet would write at least reasonably well, but never.
144
If you look at CNN, it's fake news.
145
If you look at MSNOW, I don't even know what MSNOW is.
146
I guess it's the MSNBC, what it used to be, or MSDNC, as some people call it.
147
That's Democrat National Committee.
148
But it's just biased news.
149
And I think that these outlets have an obligation, to be fair.
150
And if they're fake news, I really think I have an obligation not to allow them into another very special house.
151
This is a special house, Gracie Manchin.
152
Well, the White House is the most special of all houses, I have to say.
153
And I don't even think the mayor would argue with that.
154
And I think I have an obligation not to let fake news.
155
They're very bad for the country, very bad for national security.
156
So I have that obligation.
157
So we'll see how it works out.
158
Thank you.
159
That's all the time the president has.
160
Thank you all so much.
161
Can you talk about TPS, which affects so many Haitians who have their TPS removed?
162
The mayor will stay to take a few questions.
163
A lot of New Yorkers are here on protected status, and it's been removed.
164
Well, the mayor feels very strongly about it, I can tell you.
165
And he did bring it up.
166
But he feels very, very strongly about it.
167
How do you feel?
168
Do you feel?
169
I feel strongly about a lot of things.
170
I feel strongly about taking care of people.
171
And that's what we do.
172
We're doing a good job of it.
173
Thank you so much.
174
Thank you very much.
175
Thank you very much.
176
Appreciate it.
177
All right.
178
The mayor will have time for a few more questions.
179
We can go to New York One.
180
We've got Kelly Mena over here.
181
Hi.
182
Right over here.
183
Hi.
184
How are you?
185
The president is still here.
186
The president is still here.
187
I want to follow up on what he said about the mayor.
188
The mayor.
189
You said, Mr. President, that the mayor...
190
Before you go, the president is saying he can answer a couple more questions.
191
Oh, OK, great.
192
So for both of you then, Mr. Mayor, the president said that he hopes that you'll be a great mayor.
193
I wonder what your thoughts are about that.
194
Also tell us what the conversation was around TPS and immigration overall.
195
And also a question for the president.
196
What made you think about today's, I guess, discussion and your time with the mayor
197
that made you think he was going to be a great mayor
198
or that you hope he's going to be great when you've had so many criticisms for him in the past.
199
You know, I'll leave it to New Yorkers on your first question to make their judgments.
200
On your second question, as the president said, I shared my very strong opinions about how we can keep
201
New Yorkers safe, how we can keep immigrant
202
New Yorkers safe, and how important immigrant
203
New Yorkers, especially Haitian New Yorkers, are not only to the fabric of our city, but also to our city's economy,
204
to so many of the industries that build our city and the stability that is in the president's hands.
205
And I appreciate the conversation that we had and the consideration to that end. And I'll...
206
You had your third question for the president.
207
No, I certainly hope he will be a great mayor.
208
You have to understand, I want what's good for New York.
209
I want what's good for the country.
210
So if I had a choice of having him be a bad mayor or horrible mayor, I don't want that.
211
I want him to be a great mayor.
212
And he's certainly got potential, got great potential.
213
Thank you so much.
214
That's all the time we have.
215
Thank you all.
216
Thank you very much.
217
Thank you.
218
Thank you.
219
Thank you.
220
Thank you.
221
Thank you.
222
And this time, let's wait for the microphone, please.
223
Good to see you yell without the mic, no matter who it's for.
224
Mr. Mayor, can you tell us, you know, now he's not here.
225
So what was your reaction to some of the things he said up there, specifically about TPS?
226
What was the conversation about TPS?
227
Were you in there with Stephen Miller?
228
What was his and Susie Wiles' thought on TPS, a big issue that's happening in this city?
229
So I appreciated the conversation.
230
It was a productive conversation.
231
Stephen Miller was not a part of the conversation.
232
It was myself, the president, Susie Wiles, my chief of staff, El Bisgard Church.
233
And what I made the case about is just how critical this is to so many
234
New Yorkers and how I hear about this not just from those
235
New Yorkers, not just from their families, but also from their pastors, from developers, from executives in health care and hospitality.
236
Especially when we're talking about Haitian New Yorkers, we are talking about one of the most critical communities in our city.
237
And when we're talking about the status,
238
we're talking about something that can either deliver or deny stability in their lives and the lives of those who love them.
239
And so I made very clear this is a priority for me, a priority for our city, and I appreciated the consideration.
240
Thank you, Miles.
241
We're going to go next to Saheli from City and State.
242
Okay, never mind.
243
We're going to go to Morgan McKay.
244
Thank you so much.
245
Hi, Mr. Mayor.
246
Hey, Morgan.
247
How's it going?
248
I'm good, thank you.
249
I just want to know what went into this meeting.
250
Did you reach out to him?
251
Was this part of your conversation from the last time?
252
And what did you guys do inside?
253
Did you show him around?
254
Did you show him what's new?
255
Did they test out the bidets?
256
No. Then also, I just had to ask as well,
257
did you guys also discuss federal funding when it comes to the counterterrorism funding for the NYPD and the missing funding?
258
Hochul had said that she was hoping that you would talk about it.
259
We had a wide -ranging conversation.
260
It extended from a conversation around the importance of our police department.
261
It went to TPS.
262
It also extended to Sunnyside Yard.
263
And to the first part of your question,
264
I appreciated not only having that conversation with the president and making the case on behalf of New Yorkers,
265
the president also has many memories of Gracie Manchin.
266
He's been here a number of times.
267
I shared with the president also that I recently learned that he actually got married in the Blue Room at City Hall.
268
which is where many of us spend a lot of our time with press conferences and Q &As.
269
And with the president sharing the historic nature of this building, not only as it has been home to Mayor Sinsfiero LaGuardia,
270
but also that it has so much of the history of this country.
271
There's a cannonball from the Revolutionary War.
272
There's a fireplace from the residence where Aaron Burr died after his duel with Alexander Hamilton.
273
So that is all a part of this building as well.
274
All right, we're going to have time for a few more.
275
We're going to go to Cranes, Jack, on the other end there.
276
If you could just wait for the microphone.
277
Thank you.
278
Hi, Mr. Mayor.
279
Back to Sunnyside Yards, or Sunnyside Yard.
280
21 billion was the number that you all put out before.
281
Is that something you actually think that the federal government will put forward?
282
Did you talk about the kind of dollar amount?
283
And then also, this is the kind of thing that can get kicked down the road.
284
Are you able to give us any kind of timeline of
285
when you would like to see actual movement on the Sunnyside Yard project?
286
We are sincerely interested and committed to this as an idea, which is why it's been the focus of the conversations I've had with the president,
287
not only in this meeting, but also in the prior meeting at the White House.
288
And again, what we're talking about is something very rare in our city.
289
It's the possibility of constructing an entirely new neighborhood.
290
And again, it's only possible with federal partnership because of not only the scale of funding required,
291
but also the authorization in constructing a platform that would then serve as the foundation for about 12 ,000 homes, about 30 ,000 jobs.
292
And it would be transformative, not only in terms of working people who could create this,
293
but also and be paid enough to be able to afford to live in the city,
294
but also working people who could actually live in a neighborhood that today is a train yard.
295
Thank you.
296
We've got time for two more.
297
We're going to go to Jeff Mays and we'll finish with Joe Anuda.
298
Just wait for the microphone.
299
How are you doing, Jeff?
300
Half a tan suit?
301
Yeah.
302
I mean, you know, I have to wear it before summer is over.
303
That's good.
304
Well, summer is over.
305
Summer's done.
306
I'm still wearing it anyway.
307
I want to ask you a little bit about how this meeting came about.
308
Could you tell us a little more?
309
Did you invite him?
310
You know, did you expect to have certain things addressed while here?
311
Did you have a sort of agenda before meeting him when he came here?
312
And then the second question is, Hakeem Jeffries was strongly criticized for meeting with Jared Kushner, president's adviser.
313
Do you think you should be criticized for taking time to meet with the president?
314
Look, I think the — I said this in my opening remarks, that I committed over the course of the campaign,
315
as well as while being in office, that I would meet with anyone, work with anyone that could deliver for New Yorkers.
316
And in the previous meetings I've had with President Trump,
317
we've been able to secure the release of a New York City college student who had been detained by ICE.
318
We've been able to move forward what has been a longstanding dream about the construction of Sunnyside Yard.
319
And we know we have a significant way to go, but these meetings do truly assist in that path.
320
And to me, the question always is, how can we deliver for the city?
321
How can we deliver for the people of the city?
322
And so having a conversation about potentially building 12 ,000 homes, about the importance of our Haitian neighbors here in this city,
323
those are conversations that are worthwhile to have.
324
And to the first question, this was part of a conversation I was having with the president.
325
I invited the president to come to Gracie Mansion, and he had also remarked to me in prior conversations about how many memories
326
he has of this as a home for prior mayors.
327
And I thought it would be a good location for a
328
continuation of the conversation of how to deliver for the people who are being priced out of the city.
329
Last question.
330
We'll go to Joe.
331
Mr. Anuta.
332
Mr. Mayor, how are you?
333
Doing well.
334
How are you?
335
I'm well.
336
Two questions.
337
You said that you're taking the conversation about Sunnyside Yard to the next level.
338
Can you give us any detail about what that means?
339
I mean, you've already brought the plan to him before.
340
So what does the next level mean?
341
So the conversations have been continuing about this project.
342
What today we made an agreement on was
343
that the conversation would now be elevated to a place where it's going to also be technical between our housing teams,
344
our operations teams and the White House.
345
And that is critically important because, as you heard earlier from the question from Cranes, yes, there's an aspect of this that is about financing.
346
There's also an aspect of this about technical and legal authorization of the construction of a platform.
347
That's what this kind of a conversation facilitates.
348
OK, and then my second question, I think a lot of people see your strategy around the president, curbing criticism of him.
349
I feel like you don't often launch personal attacks against him.
350
You don't talk about how often you speak or what you speak about when we typically ask you at press conferences.
351
And I think a lot of people see that as a way to kind of avoid incurring his wrath in a way, especially with immigration enforcement.
352
But we've seen since January that ice arrests have increased since you became mayor.
353
So I'm wondering, do you still think
354
that this tactic is worth it to sort of take a softer touch with the president in exchange for maybe sparing
355
New York City more enforcement?
356
And is there a point where this no longer makes sense for you?
357
You know, the president and I have both been very frank about the many disagreements that we have.
358
And immigration is one of those places.
359
We've both spoken about very different approaches, very different beliefs.
360
And I will continue to have conversations with the president and, frankly, with anyone who can deliver relief to the people of the city.
361
And to me, you know, in the past meeting, at the meeting, we spoke about Sunnyside Yard.
362
We introduced that conversation.
363
Thirty minutes after the last meeting, he called me to let me know that the list of students that we had put forward to him,
364
that he was going to release one of them.
365
Soon after that, he released another one of them.
366
And frankly, if a meeting can be the difference between detention and dignity.
367
It's a meeting worth taking, all while being honest about the disagreements that we do have.
368
Thank you.
369
That's all the time we have.
370
Thank you all very much.
371
Thank you.
372
Thank you.

מהי טכניקת השאדואינג?
שאדואינג היא טכניקת למידת שפה מבוססת מדע שפותחה במקור להכשרת מתורגמנים מקצועיים ופופולרית על ידי הפוליגלוט ד"ר אלכסנדר ארגואלס. השיטה פשוטה אך עוצמתית: אתה מקשיב לאודיו באנגלית ילידית וחוזר עליו בקול רם מיד — כמו צל העוקב אחרי הדובר עם עיכוב של 1–2 שניות בלבד. בניגוד להאזנה פסיבית או תרגילי דקדוק, שאדואינג מכריח את המוח והשרירים בפה לעבד ולשחזר דפוסי דיבור אמיתיים בו זמנית. מחקרים מראים שזה משפר משמעותית את דיוק ההגייה, האינטונציה, הקצב, הדיבור המחובר, הבנת השמיעה ושטף הדיבור — מה שהופך אותו לאחת השיטות היעילות ביותר להכנה לIELTS Speaking ולתקשורת באנגלית בעולם האמיתי.
