Source: ABC News
NEW YORK (WABC) -- New York City Mayor Eric Adams said in a recent interview, "the Democratic Party left me."
Adams recently met with President Donald Trump at his Mar-a-Lago home to discuss future plans for New York City.
Just days later, the mayor received an invitation to the presidential inauguration and dropped his scheduled plans for Martin Luther King, Jr Day to attend the ceremony.
But Adams says the values originally touted by the Democratic Party no longer exist.

(254 posts)in when Gray Davis was recalled. That sure ticked off some people that had plans for that office, like Darryl Izza.
I thought Caruso's Palisades shopping center was destroyed in the fire, but I later heard a report that he hired private firefighters to save the structures. He may try for Governor instead of Mayor. Another guy that had a rich daddy.

The Party knows when to stay in the background. That's how his predecessor, Bill DeBlasio, lost support. And Congressman Anthony Weiner. Nothing personal. It's politics.
