Sliwa: Same blah blah Blas from Adams

Abby Weiss, Sam Raskin

Republican mayoral candidate Curtis Sliwa labeled his Democratic opponent, Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams, “de Blasio 2.0” for praising the current mayor’s homeless-services commissioner.

“Steven Banks is the biggest blunder of so many blunders committed by the de Blasio administration. Eric Adams is striking me as if he wants to be de Blasio 2.0,” Sliwa said Monday at a press conference in Manhattan.

“Eric Adams is going to be a carbon copy of the de Blasio administration, which people on the right, the left and the center all acknowledge has single-handedly taken a Miley Cyrus wrecking ball to the city that we love,” the Guardian Angels founder said. “Well, with me, he’s proven he’s nothing more than a continuation of de Blasio, if he gets elected mayor, and he’s de Blasio 2.0.”

Sliwa accused Banks of ramming shelters down the throats of neighborhood residents.

“Steven Banks, who I’ve had run-ins with personally in joining demonstrations, where he shoves shelters into neighborhoods, where there was no transparency, no discourse, no explanation,” he said. “He’s the number-one blunder of the de Blasio administration.”
