Summary
New York Mayor Eric Adams is facing scrutiny for his apparent shift to the right, aligning with Trump’s immigration policies and suggesting cooperation with mass deportations.
Critics link this to his federal corruption trial over alleged fundraising abuses, speculating Adams is currying favor with Trump to ease legal pressures.
His hardline immigration stance, including deporting accused (not convicted) migrants, has sparked backlash from civil rights groups.
Analysts suggest Adams’ moves aim to secure re-election by appealing to centrist voters and adapting to Trump’s incoming administration.
Adams hasn’t ruled out switching parties.
This is just like Tulsi Gabbard and a slew of other Democrats, which is why it’s important to hold the party and it’s leadership accountable rather than just being sycophants that support anyone with a D next to their name. Too many Democratic voters refuse to listen to any sort of criticism against party members and this is the result of that.
