New York Mayor Eric Adams calls himself a progressive, but in his view, economic justice and environmental sustainability demand addressing quality-of-life problems, not ideological sloganeering. “We have a good product. We need to sell that product.”
as Adams’s public safety plans began to take shape in 2022. She likened those plans to the excesses of Giuliani.
“We need to stop allowing them to exploit the safety of the pandemic by wearing masks, committing crimes,” Adams said in a media appearance. Social media lit up with criticism, and some New Yorkers, but Adams seemed — not for the first time — to be speaking past his critics. “We knew we had to deal with the feeling,” Adams says, “and the best way to deal with the feeling is a blue uniform.” He ordered more cops into subways after several high-profile murders that caused anxiety among riders, who had been slowly returning underground.
He similarly regarded the coronavirus from the vantage point of the blue-collar outer-borough resident who never had the luxury of remote work, and the coffee cart operator who could not sustain his operation if the Financial District remained as empty on a Monday afternoon as on a Sunday evening.
