Eric Adams doesn't rule out switch to the GOP: 'Cancel me'

[RandySF]

NEW YORK — New York City Mayor Eric Adams, a Democrat who has taken a soft touch with President-elect Donald Trump, left open the possibility of switching to the Republican Party in a pair of Friday morning interviews.

Adams was a member of the GOP from 1995 through 2002, and was asked during an appearance on NY1 whether he would return to the party. He did not rule out the possibility.

“I’m a part of the American party,” he said in response. “I love this country.”

Asked to clarify his comments in a subsequent interview on PIX11, the big-city mayor again left open the question about his future political affiliation.

“No matter what party I’m on or vote on, I’m going to push for American values,” he said, arguing that officials need to move beyond parties altogether and work in concert to solve voters’ problems.

8. Oh please, Adams, stop wasting our time. You're not getting re-elected so...

switch to the criminal party if you want. That's probably more appropriate.

9. This should be illegal. He was voted in as a Democrat. If he wants to switch parties, there should be a new election.
