President Joe Biden and Mayor Eric Adams' growing feud reflects significant differences in the political realities facing them. As president, Biden has to manage the increasingly progressive left wing of the Democratic Party — its calls for decriminalization and decarceration, and limiting enforcement of illegal US border crossings. As mayor, Adams is responsible for preserving order on the streets, and therefore must have tools for dealing with criminal behavior. He must also find ways to limit the costly inflow of illegal migrants into New York. Evidence of the feud is manifesting from both sides: Adams is now blasting Biden policies.
