Mayor Eric Adams surprised several social media users after referencing the World Trade Center terror attacks in his description of why New York City is the “greatest city on the globe.”

Adams spoke with host Dan Mannarino on WPIX-TV’s “PIX on Politics” on Sunday when the latter asked the mayor what word he would use to describe 2023.

“New York. This is a place where every day you wake up, you could experience everything from a plane crashing into our Trade Center to a person who’s celebrating a new business that’s open. This is a very, very complicated city, and that’s why it’s the greatest city on the globe,” Adams replied.

The New York City mayor’s reference to the series of terror attacks that killed approximately 3,000 people on September 11, 2001, took many people by surprise. Many called out Adams’ comment as a “disgrace” and likely the “worst answer” they have heard.

What a really bizarre comment.

To say that New York is a city full of possibilities, you never know what’s going to happen , because a plane might crash into a building????

I’m happy with my boring city with the generally lowest crime rate in the country.

Confused and stupid. On the verge of hysteria because he can’t control what’s happening.

A humour book from 1982. Hating NYC isn't a new thing.

And he can’t count either: That’s (almost) one entire paragraph - of disconnected phrases. Not one word.
