Charlamagne Urges Politicians to Drop 'Fascist' Talk After Cordial Trump–Mamdani Meeting

The radio host argues that charged labels lose meaning once rivals publicly cooperate.

Overview

On The Breakfast Club, Charlamagne tha God told politicians to stop using terms like fascist and communist, calling the rhetoric hypocritical if they still work together.
He warned that incendiary labels inflame audiences and can fuel confrontations while officials maintain cordial relationships behind the scenes.
His remarks followed last Friday’s Oval Office meeting where President Trump encouraged Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani to repeat his past description, and Mamdani said yes.
In a subsequent Meet the Press interview, Mamdani reaffirmed that view but said he appreciated a candid discussion and sought to focus on affordability concerns for New Yorkers.
Reports noted no policy agreements from the meeting, with coverage centering on optics, rhetoric, and the broader debate over the use of loaded political labels.
