New York Mayor Eric Adams did not mince his words about his disapproval of what he called the large number of “nasty” Gen Z voters supporting Zhoran Mamdani, the democratic socialist candidate leading the race for NYC mayor.

Why is Adams channeling Trump? He knows he's black, right?b

He hopes Trump can give him a presidential whitewash.

It'll last as long as they don't get bored with immigrants and trans folk. So like a year tops

[–] Witchfire@lemmy.world 19 points 5 days ago

As a immigrant trans folk this year has been the longest 5 years of my life

[–] Archangel1313@lemmy.ca 19 points 5 days ago (2 children)

He's trying to prove that he's "one of the good ones".

Tokens get spent, especially under the Trump regime.

[–] Ironfist79@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago

No such thing.

He is like that old guy in django unchained that stays loyal to his slaver until the end. And he will die for him if need be.

he wants a pardon from him. Plus his little stunt in december while making a dramatic perp walk with luigi was also to appear"strong" for trump.

He doesn't need to get pardoned, because Trump's DoJ moved to have the case dismissed, which it was. With prejudice.
