NYC Mayor Eric Adams Meets President-Elect Trump in Florida

The meeting, held days before Trump's inauguration, focused on New York City's needs, but raised questions about Adams' legal challenges and potential pardon.

Mayor Eric Adams and President-elect Donald Trump discussed federal support for NYC, including infrastructure, public safety, and manufacturing jobs in the Bronx.
Adams emphasized that his legal case, involving federal bribery and fraud charges, was not discussed during the meeting.
Critics speculated that Adams sought the meeting to secure a pardon, a claim he denied, reiterating his focus on advocating for New Yorkers.
Adams' willingness to work with Trump has drawn mixed reactions, with some praising bipartisanship and others questioning his motivations given his legal troubles.
Trump previously indicated he would consider pardoning Adams, citing perceived unfair treatment by federal prosecutors.
