Democratic Mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani on Wednesday called new reports that Republican President Donald Trump has offered Mayor Eric Adams a job — in an apparent gambit to clear the mayoral general election field and strengthen Andrew Cuomo’s chances of defeating him — an “affront to democracy.”
The Democratic nominee, during a Wednesday afternoon Manhattan press conference, sought to tie Trump’s machinations directly to Cuomo, the former governor, who is polling in second place.
