New York City Mayor Eric Adams appears open to switching parties to become a Republican, as he declined to rule out a future change in political allegiances during a pair of interviews Friday that came as he has increasing warmed to President-elect Donald Trump.

The comments from Adams, the top Democrat in one of the country’s most liberal cities, riled critics who have grown concerned over the mayor’s increasing willingness to throw his support behind Trump and his hardline immigration policies.

Adams, who faces federal corruption charges, was a registered Republican in the 1990s and early 2000s but has spent his political career as a Democrat.

    I hope so too. I’m wanting to line up a job before we go as well so the savings don’t get depleted and credit cards don’t get maxed out. Good luck to you. My wife also doesn’t have dual citizenship, so she is in the same boat.

      If Canada wasn’t in the same housing crunch as America (and we’re now limiting immigration) I’m sure we’d be involved in America’s brain drain.

      I hope everyone who’s planning a move can get where they want to go sooner rather than later.
