NYC Mayor Adams Discusses Trump Job Offers Amid Reelection Campaign

New York City Mayor Eric Adams has acknowledged he is considering job opportunities with the Trump administration but insists he remains in the mayoral race and has received no formal job offers. President Donald Trump has expressed a desire for two candidates to drop out to create a one-on-one race against Democratic nominee Zohran Mamdani, whom Trump falsely labeled a communist. Reports indicate Trump considered offering positions to Adams and Republican candidate Curtis Sliwa to clear the field for former Governor Andrew Cuomo to challenge Mamdani. Adams met privately with Steve Witkoff, a close Trump adviser, to discuss possible roles, though no official offer was made. Mamdani criticized these efforts as political interference aimed at preventing his election. Despite speculation and pressure, Adams maintains his commitment to serving as mayor and continuing his campaign.
