Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump expressed his gratitude to Eric Adams during his rally at Madison Square Garden on Sunday, asserting that the New York City mayor has faced “very badly” treatment from the Department of Justice.
“I wanna thank Mayor Adams,” Trump remarked as a few boos resonated from the crowd toward the end of his speech.
Adams was indicted by the DOJ on bribery charges late last month, a situation Trump indicated he could relate to. He suggested that the indictment was expected after Adams criticized the Biden administration for its insufficient support in addressing the city’s illegal immigration issues in the summer of 2023.
“Mayor Adams has been treated pretty badly. When he said this whole thing with the migrants coming into New York, ‘This is just not sustainable. We can’t do it. We’re trying to run the city, we got 100,000 migrants coming. We can’t do it.’ … He said it very nicely,” Trump told the enthusiastic audience. “I said, ‘He’s going to be indicted by these lunatics.’ A year later, he got indicted.”
This week, Adams responded to the criticism aimed at Trump, which included the label of “fascist” directed at the former president, especially as the mayor faced backlash for permitting the Republican nominee’s rally at Madison Square Garden.
“He’s been really great. He said, ‘They shouldn’t be calling Trump a dictator because it’s not true.’ That was nice, very nice. He’s going through a hard time with these people,” Trump stated.

Trump thinks that taking millions from Erdogan isn’t a bad thing. This should not be surprise as his first National Security Advisor was an illegally unregistered foreign agent for Erdogan and pled guilty to charges related to that before Trump pardoned him.
