DL was warned about Eric Adams, but too many self hating gays like NYPD Officer EDW|N were bootlicking shills who wouldn't listen to reason. This is the consequence of not heeding the advice begging people not to vote for him.

There was someone here who kept swearing up and down that Adams is a really nice and decent guy. Kept saying his mother was neighbors with Adams and he’s a good guy.
He’s a clown. He mispronounced “preliminary” so many times today. I mean…

I don't like the guy because he is uncouth and undereducated. He struggles with public speaking and I don't see how this can be sustained over 4 years. He has bungled a few appointments and demonstrates poor judgment.

He's the new conservative black mayor, right? Yeah, not gonna ever be a good match for the white gays in Manhattan. Rudy Giuliani was more gay-friendly than this guy is.

I agree with R5. He is a horrible public speaker and his bluster is laughable. He’s thin skinned and honestly just comes off as a little dumb. He was so embarrassed that he accomplished nothing during his trip to Albany, that he played the old tired and worn out race card with the media. I’m hoping he is just going through a steep learning curve. Otherwise, it will be a long, long, long years.

It’s interesting that we don’t see the school commissioner at ALL. I almost miss his sermons on excellence, surrounded by his black-power Greek chorus. His appointments have been dismal (although I’m rooting for Sewell).
He reminds me of a black version of Trump.

BitCoins, nepotism, telling NYC businesses to open all offices COVID be damned, harassment of the homeless these are just a FEW of New York City’s new Mayor Eric Adam most recent eyebrow raising antics. But now Adam’s has crossed the line by putting anti-LGBT far right wing DINO Rev. Erick Salgado.
In 2013 Salgado was endorsement from the antigay hate group National Organization for Marriage, a nonprofit formed for the sole purpose of opposing same-sex marriage.
During a candidate forum, Salgado criticized his opponents for marching in Pride parade, and sold himself as the “only one who did not march” and as “the only one who [is] willing to say in public that I only believe in traditional marriage.”
But of course it gets worse.
Salgado objected to the Parks Department erecting statues in the Sheepshead Bay Holocaust Memorial Park in honor of non-Jewish victims of the Nazis, including LGBTQ people, calling it “a betrayal of the community and even worse, disrespectful to the memory of those who perished in the Holocaust.”
Rumor has it that Adams is also considering appointing former New York City Councilman Fernando Cabrera to a “faith-based” position in the administration, after backing off a previous plan to appoint him as the city’s top mental health official after his anti-LGBTQ views came to light, including once expressing support for a Ugandan law that would have seen gay people executed.
Who voted for Adam’s exactly and why?

Why is it that only Republicans can get away with being this bigoted, incompetent, and corrupt (simultaneously)? When a Democrat's like this he immediately gets shat all over by the public and the media; when a Republican like Trump does it's treated like a positive.

Plenty of the media and public did shit on Trump. But even ranting your premise - because people expect Republicans to behave like that, and expect Democrats to be better than that.
by Anonymous | reply 23 | February 22, 2022 3:12 AM |
Because Republicans don't run on platforms of inclusion and diversity. No Republican is going to the polls advocating acceptance for all people. Dems do, which is why they deserve all of the criticism when they fail to follow up on their promises. jus as the " Family Values" Republicans must be skewered when they put themselves in hpocritical situations.

Mayor Eric Adams refuses to admit or deny that he’s gay after a POLITICO report detailed a close relationship he has with another man
A secret private life
Mayor Adams has been prone to keep important details about his private life secret, so much so that, during the lead-up to the 2021 Democratic Party mayoral primary, he was forced to give journalists a tour of his reported Brooklyn residence to dispel gossip and innuendo that he was really living in New Jersey. At the time of the tour, the then mayoral candidate claimed he had a “girlfriend,” but he hadn’t seen her in two months, according to a report published by the Daily Mail.
The man at the center of the POLITICO report, Mr. Petrosyants, was described as “keeping watch” over Mayor Adams. The two men spend “extensive time together,” enjoying an active nightlife and sharing their evenings together at Mr. Petrosyants’ apartment. The two men also own condominium units “nearly across the street from each other” in Fort Lee, N.J., according to the POLITICO report.

His raw vegan diet has poisoned what was left of his mind. He's a cop, a pig, and a bigot.
New Yorkers could've elected the brilliant but boring Kathryn Garcia and avoided all this shit, but no, they had to go for a thug with the temper of a pre-trial OJ Simpson and the vocabulary of a post-accident Tracy Morgan.

It really is disappointing how tone deaf he’s been with some of his appointments. But I guess when you get elected despite being unable to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt you live in the city you want to lead, you figure you can do whatever the fuck you please.
