New York City Mayor Eric Adams appeared on “The View” Friday to discuss President-elect Donald Trump’s impact on the city.
Adams urged both political sides to tone down divisive rhetoric, suggesting it contributed to Trump’s victory and his growing support in the city.
“What you saw in this city and a city becoming redder is because we stopped talking about broken class issues,” Adams said, before referencing the statements from Trump opponents that he was a fascist. “They’re not talking about fascism, they’re talking about finance. They’re not talking about Hitler, they’re talking about housing.”
“The View” co-host Ana Navarro noted that Vice President-elect JD Vance once called Trump Hitler. Adams reiterated that everyone must tone down their rhetoric.
Adams was also asked about his opinions on Trump’s controversial cabinet appointees, specifically Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who has been tapped to run the Department of Health and Human Services.
