New York Mayor Eric Adams set out Thursday to persuade skeptical voters to grant him a second term, hosting a kickoff event for his independent reelection bid after a corruption indictment, a controversial dismissal and a decision to drop out of a the Democratic primary.
Standing on the steps of City Hall, Adams sought to draw a contrast between himself and the likely Democratic candidate, Zohran Mamdani, casting the young liberal as a child of privilege with no real political achievements or realistic policies.
“This election is a choice between a candidate with a blue collar and one with a silver spoon,” Adams said. “A choice between dirty fingernails and manicured nails.”
Turkish coffee mug decries silver spoon, oh no…
Better than trumps balls
More like a choice between a criminal grifter who robs the taxpayers and a candidate who claims to want to provide the services taxpayers paid for.
His collar is blue because he’s a cop not because he’s a hard worker. His collar should be ruffles because he’s a clown

His city owned grocery stores would be a boon for the new york farmers being fucked over by Trump. They could sell produce and meat directly to the state that is currently not being bought by China and other countries.
Wow. He’s just gonna . . . just gonna run again huh.
Adams presumably is still serving Trump, and is hoping to split votes for democrats who are voting on pure incumbent name recognition.
He’s gonna get slaughtered and will say the election was rigged.
Always gotta have a backup plan to excuse stupidity.
Republican’s backup plan is to try to get Zohran deported. They already started trying
Republicans will gladly take the D up the A before they’d take the L.
Rather someone with a silver spoon than a golden dick in their mouth.
One of my favorite exchanges from the 2008 election:
Colbert: tell me about growing up with a silver spoon in your mouth on the south side of Chicago
Michelle Obama: we didn’t have silver spoons. We had four spoons.
Colbert: but there were spoons, right?
And Mr. Adams has a silver federal police baton up his ass.
Pakled Homan’s bitch.

An ex-cop with international corruption charges…

Who got the federal charges dropped by sucking up to a literal fascist…
Yeah, Eric…
I don’t think you need to worry about doubting your fucking hands are dirty
On the plus said him and JoJo’s crazy violent uncle are going to basically hand Mamdaninthe general by splitting the asshole vote. The only danger is if one of them pulls an RFK and drops lastinute to endorse the other.
But I’m still confident Mamdani would be a that

100% chance, IMO.
No the GOP and DNC are going rigged the election. Its that or he gets deported if it truly looks like he can win. I hope I am wrong, but have zero faith in elections nomore. If they do deport I hope that will be enough for us to revolt.
They’re already trying to deport him.
NYC’s really going to have to choose between Mamdani, Adams, and Cuomo running independent? I feel like the choice is pretty obvious here. Hard to imagine this race being more of an obvious choice; maybe if we got Henry Kissinger’s corpse to run as well? I’m sure he’d cinch the Clinton endorsement.
Yes, obviously the democratic vote will be split three ways and the republican will win. 😡
Gonna elect a cop TWO times after 2020 NYC? Please tell me no.
Someone hand that guy some tissues.
