Former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo is running as a Democrat in the crowded and chaotic race to replace embattled New York City Mayor Eric Adams. In a rare, exclusive, no-questions-barred interview, Cuomo spoke with News 12 Senior Political Reporter Tara Rosenblum to discuss his mayoral bid.

Rosenblum spent a day on Cuomo’s campaign trail, starting with a stop at a Brooklyn church, where he’s rebuilding his political base, and ending with an unfiltered conversation in a nearby park.

The former governor opened up about public safety, his longstanding relationship with Donald Trump, his criticism of progressive rivals and the personal family legacy driving his comeback campaign.

The wide-ranging conversation also addressed the challenges facing both city residents and commuters from Westchester and Long Island, past mistakes, his plans to rebuild trust and whether he would rule out a run for the White House.
