Cuomo says he'd turn down Trump endorsement
New York City mayoral candidate Andrew Cuomo said in an interview Thursday that he would not accept an endorsement from President Trump if offered one, but he would accept the backing of incumbent Mayor Eric Adams, who recently dropped out of the race.
“No, the tent isn’t that big, Kristen. That’s the limitation,” the independent candidate told NBC’s “Meet the Press NOW” moderator Kristen Welker. “I have not had a conversation, nor would I accept an endorsement from President Trump.”
Cuomo added later that he did not think they needed “to inject President Trump into this election.”
However, the former New York governor said he welcomed the support of Adams as the mayoral race draws toward a close in roughly a month.
