Summary

Curtis Sliwa, Republican running for Mayor of New York City, joins Sid live in-studio to discuss the unraveling of Eric Adams’ political future, the shifting loyalties of Adams’ supporters, and Andrew Cuomo’s potential comeback. Sliwa argued that Adams failed as mayor, paving the way for challengers, while Cuomo remains inconsistent and evasive. He emphasized his own campaign momentum, fundraising success, and strong grassroots support across New York City, rejecting any suggestion that he should drop out. Positioning himself as the only true law-and-order candidate, Sliwa portrayed himself as the clear alternative to both Cuomo and Zohran Mamdani. Learn more about your ad choices.
