New York City Mayor Eric Adams is expected to meet with President-elect Donald Trump on Friday about challenges facing the nation's largest city in the face of his own legal woes.
Despite his absence, Adams has remained active on social media, posting frequent updates, particularly regarding the ongoing ICE deportation efforts in New York City.
And he has declined, repeatedly, to criticize Trump when pressed by reporters. He has expressed no qualms with Trump’s executive orders to withdraw the U.S. from the Paris climate agreement, pardon Jan. 6 rioters and end birthright citizenship. In fact, it’s hard to remember when he last offered a negative word for the incendiary president.
Being “tough on crime” has worked for conservative politicians for decades, and it worked for Adams too. But quickly, Adams’ actual conservative policies and resolute unseriousness about governance knocked him out of the public’s good graces.
