New York Mayor Eric Adams set out Thursday to persuade skeptical voters to grant him a second term, hosting a kickoff event for his independent reelection bid after a corruption indictment, a controversial dismissal and a decision to drop out of a the Democratic primary.
Standing on the steps of City Hall, Adams sought to draw a contrast between himself and the likely Democratic candidate, Zohran Mamdani, casting the young liberal as a child of privilege with no real political achievements or realistic policies.
“This election is a choice between a candidate with a blue collar and one with a silver spoon,” Adams said. “A choice between dirty fingernails and manicured nails.”
Wow. He’s just gonna . . . just gonna run again huh.
Adams presumably is still serving Trump, and is hoping to split votes for democrats who are voting on pure incumbent name recognition.
He’s gonna get slaughtered and will say the election was rigged.
Always gotta have a backup plan to excuse stupidity.
Republican’s backup plan is to try to get Zohran deported. They already started trying
Democrats are also scheming to get rid of him. If the MAGA Nazis come after him, don’t expect the Dems to defend him.
Republicans will gladly take the D up the A before they’d take the L.
