I had assumed he would be another smooth-talking closet conservative like Obama, but nope. So far he’s doing as much good as could reasonably be expected, which is a nice change of pace for someone aligned as a Democrat.
Idk, man. He’s very early into his administration and he already caved on keeping Jessica Tisch at NYPD.
The guy seems to have his heart in the right place. And he’s definitely got the wind at his back. But we have a long way to go until the book is written on Zohran’s legacy. He has plenty of opportunities to disappoint.
He never ran on replacing Tisch. He planned to sideline NYPD by expanding social worker sector. Might as well be disappointed that he didn’t implement Shakira law.
Maybe “caved” is the wrong word. But he’s been very non-confrontational. Maybe that’s a strategy. Maybe that’s just a fight he doesn’t think he can win. Maybe he’s legitimately intimidated by the NYPD after how they roughed up de Blasio’s daughter. Idk.
But keeping Tisch around when he could have appointed his own Chief, especially after the scandals Tisch has covered up, is a concession to the NYPD that plenty of people consider a mistake.
Except for Zohran. 🤟😎

Every new mayor picks their own police commissioner.
Keeping Adams’s billionaire scion at the head of the agency full of people who hate you the most is a dangerous play
Yes, I know he can replace her. I also would like it more if he had the balls to do it. But saying he caved to the NYPD is delusional.

I completely agree with you on that.
