Mayor Eric Adams’s campaign on Wednesday denied reports he would take a job in President Donald Trump’s administration as a way of dropping out of his re-election bid, which is facing tepid poll numbers.

“Mayor Adams has not met with Donald Trump — don’t believe the noise,” campaign spokesperson Todd Shapiro said. “He is not dropping out of the race.”
