Advisers to President Trump have discussed the possibility of giving Mayor Eric Adams of New York City a position in the administration as a way to clear the field in November’s mayoral election and damage the chances of the Democratic front-runner, Zohran Mamdani, according to three people with knowledge of the discussions.

The talks have also involved finding a possible place in the administration for the Republican candidate, Curtis Sliwa.

The goal, the people said, would be to give former Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo a better chance of defeating Mr. Mamdani in November’s general election.

    Lmao, Trump backing Cuomo is the worst thing that could ever happen for him. Any Jewish DNC on the fence about Mamdani certainly won’t side with the fascists who waved seig heils around during the campaign.

      Idk, have you seen the DNC? I agree it should be an obvious, easy win, but these people are truly morons and power hungry. They’ll sell their literal soles for a little extra scratch.
