New Yorkers (and others) What do you think of Mayor EricAdams?

[Stinky The Clown]

I've never before been ambivalent about NYC mayors. I've liked them and disliked them. For me, Adams is hard to peg. I have mostly leaned toward dislike, but can't say why.

[Drum]

1. Dislike. Distrust.

2. Incompetent buffoon comes to mind. nt

[leftstreet]

3. Trump Democrat n/t

7. Sucks, but so does all of our Mayors since Koch

Only Bloomberg really shined.

8. "Hey! How am I doing?"

I loved Ed!

[Polybius]

9. Oh yes, Koch was great

Too bad almost every one after was horrible.

[Stinky The Clown]

11. BTW, I agree about Bloomberg

[Sky Jewels]

23. I can't understand why such a great, liberal city keeps electing horrible mayors.

[Easterncedar]

The New Yorker had a shocking piece on his cronies recently.

there were a few I really didn't want in there

[Walleye]

15. I don't know much about him but he strikes me as being not completely an honest person.

[NewHendoLib]

16. From afar, seems like a complete idiot

[Mosby]

17. I like him.

Don't know much about him though, but everything I've heard is pretty positive.

[sinkingfeeling]

18. Dislike.

[electric_blue68]

20. Idk, he's sort of ok, but not always. Maya was my first choice.

[IbogaProject]

24. Dislike

He's a former cop who as Brooklyn police commissioner tried to cover up dirty cops. He's a former Republican. He removed the one good thing the last mayor did and brought back the twice a week street sweeping thing to write more tickets. He snuck in with our ranked choice instant runoff.

26. Oh, really? I'll have to read up on that.
