NYC Mayor Eric Adams will work with incoming Trump administration

"I reached out to him and I shared that I would like to sit down and speak with him to hear what are his ideas, because I don’t want people talking at each other, I want people to talk to each other. And I made it clear that I’m not going to be warring with this administration, I’m going to be working with this administration," Adams said

"President Trump is the president-elect, and whomever he chooses to run his agencies, I’m looking forward to sitting down and seeing how do we better New York," he added.

In the wake of Trump’s Election Day victory, Adams defended the President-elect on The View, saying, "We've reached a point in this country where we no longer want to engage in conversation. They were even calling him Hitler." He added, "That was an insult to the millions of Jews and others who died. We know what Hitler did and what I said to our country, when I'm on the streets talking to my young people who are protesting on college campuses, wearing Hamas signs and calling for the destruction of groups. I said, we have to bring down this rhetoric."

Adams has also indicated that he could be on board with the incoming Trump administration's mass deportation plans, even in the sanctuary city of New York City. "The voters communicated loudly and clearly," he said. "We have a broken immigration system that needs to be fixed."
