Politician Eric Adams, a former NYPD officer, state senator, and Brooklyn borough president—and, yes, a former Republican—can add New York City mayor to his résumé…

Fingers crossed!
He’s a LOUSY GOPer candidate, but far better than the damned foreign born Muslim POS!
Can’t both Cuomo and Admas split Mamdani’s vote, and someone wins with 34% of the vote?
Having spent only 7 days in NYC this year, I’m nowhere near an expert, but it seems to me that Adams *could* win again. Mandani’s support boils down to young leftist idiots. Yes, NYC has a lot of them, but they’re not a majority. If everyone else consolidates behind Adams, he would win.
Holy cow, Batman! YES!
His time as a Republican coincides with Rudy’s being Mayor of NY 1994-2001.
Likely changed his registration to enhance his chances of promotion.
💯.
Obviously.
What a coincidence.
