New York City Mayor Eric Adams (D) is set to meet with President-elect Trump in Florida on Friday just days ahead of Trump’s inauguration next week, according to Adams’s aide. 

“Tomorrow, Mayor Adams will sit down with President-elect Trump and discuss New Yorkers’ priorities,” Adams’s spokesperson Fabien Levy said in a Thursday post on X. “The mayor looks forward to having a productive conversation with the incoming president on how we can move our city and country forward.” 

In December, Adams met with Trump’s incoming “border czar” Tom Homan. After the meet-up, Adams said during a press conference the two share a mutual goal of preventing “dangerous individuals to commit repeated violent acts of violence in our cities across America.”

Adams did highlight after the hour-long meeting that New York City will protect the rights of immigrants who are “hard-working, giving back to the city in a real way.”

“Mayor Adams has made quite clear his willingness to work with President-elect Trump and his incoming administration on behalf of New Yorkers — and that partnership with the federal government is critical to New York City’s success,” Levy said. 

Adams was indicted in September last year on federal fraud and bribery charges. He has denied any wrongdoing and has pleaded not guilty. He is set to stand trial in April.

When asked about the federal charges in mid-December, Trump said he would consider pardoning Adams, saying he thinks “he was treated pretty unfairly.”

Trump has met with another Democrat at Mar-a-Lago in recent days. Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa.) and the president-elect met at Mar-a-Lago last weekend. Trump described the meeting as “fascinating,” characterizing the freshman Senator as a “commonsense person.”

He’s not liberal or conservative,” Trump said. “He’s just a commonsense person, which is beautiful.” 

The Hill has reached out to Trump’s transition team for comment.
