NEW YORK — Mayor Eric Adams sat for an interview with conservative provocateur Tucker Carlson, an ally of President Donald Trump — Adams' latest effort to appeal to a president who has expressed a willingness to pardon him. “People often say, ‘you don’t sound like a Democrat, and you seem to have left the party,’” Adams said in a preview Carlson shared on X Tuesday. “No, the party left me, and it left working class people.”
The interview is scheduled to air on Carlson’s network Tuesday at 6 p.m. Adams’ spokespeople did not promote the interview and kept it off the mayor’s daily public schedule. Spokesperson Kayla Mamelak Altus said she usually does not include interviews that run only on social media.
