US President Donald Trump is back in the spotlight, and this time it’s not politics doing the talking; it’s looks. During a recent offhand remark, Trump boldly declared that he’s “better looking” than New York politician Zohran Mamdani.
The statement, unsurprisingly, lit up social media. Within minutes, Twitter and other platforms were flooded with sarcastic quips and memes mocking the president’s self-comparison. One viral tweet read: “bro never even had a prime.”
CBS: “Some people have compared Zohran Mamdani to a left-wing version of you. Charismatic, breaking the old rules… What do you think about that?”
President Trump: “Well, I think I’m a much better-looking person than him.”
Trump is right again!

Trump’s confident and some would say comical self-assessment has become yet another talking point in his never-ending saga of viral moments. For a man known for his flair for theatrics and love of the spotlight, this latest claim fits neatly into his well-worn playbook.
While Mamdani, a progressive New York assemblyman, didn’t directly respond, his supporters seemed more than happy to let the internet do the talking.
Threads comparing the two men’s photos, humor-laced polls, and countless reaction GIFs dominated timelines across the US and the UK.
The exchange has again highlighted Trump’s uncanny ability to turn almost anything from policy debates to personal boasts into trending fodder.
But love him or loathe him, one thing is certain: Donald Trump knows exactly how to keep people talking.
