In a video announcement, Adams said he will not run in the Democratic primary in June because his recently dismissed criminal case “dragged on too long” while the “false accusations were held over me,” preventing him from campaigning.

“I firmly believe that this city is better served by truly independent leadership, not leaders pulled at by the extremists at the far left or the far right, but instead those rooted in the common middle, the place where the vast majority of New Yorkers are firmly planted,” Adams said.

The NY State Democratic Party is one of the biggest clown shows in town. They actively work against party interests and boost these douchebags.

The DNC must love them.

Good luck trying to split the vote you piece of shit. No one's coming out for your bitch ass.

"False accusations," you say? They must have dropped the charges due to insufficient evidence, right? Not because of Trump admin interference.

[–] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago

It’s really too bad the state does have, I don’t know, laws against corruption and fraud…..

He's running again ?!? This is the dumbest timeline....

[–] mosiacmango@lemm.ee 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Another favor he can pay to Trump by splitting the vote for more "consideration."

Expect him to be in this admin when he loses.

[–] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Would dems or for him now, though? Like.

I dunno. He’s pretty tainted.

As a European, I genuinely laughed at his 'far left' mention.

[–] thefluffiest@feddit.nl 12 points 1 day ago

Americans barely have any idea what left even means, let alone far left.

[–] vegeta@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago (2 children)

LOL. Is he going to run with Eliot Spitzer?

[–] floo@retrolemmy.com 7 points 1 day ago

Of all of the horrible headlines I’ve read today, that would be amongst the more believable, given our shit fucked timeline
