NYC Mayor Eric Adams Roasted After Viewers Notice Awkward Detail In His 'Morning Routine' Video

New York City Mayor Eric Adams was widely mocked after he shared a video on social media of his "morning routine," with time stamps showing his activities—only for viewers to notice that a standard black-and-white wall clock visible in part of the video showed a very different time.

Adams jumped on the latest Instagram trend this week, sharing his version of a “morning routine” video with his followers. The trend, which has already begun to fade, typically features sped-up clips of people going through their early rituals—complete with edits, ambient music, and timestamp overlays.

In Adams’ take, viewers see him shaving, ironing a dress shirt, making a smoothie, eating fresh fruit, and departing Gracie Mansion in the Chevrolet Suburban High Country that serves as his official ride around the city.

You can see his video below.

But eagle-eyed viewers noticed something off. A black-and-white wall clock in Adams’ kitchen suggests the mayor’s day may have started later than he claimed. As he prepares his smoothie, the clock clearly shows 11 a.m.—even though the video’s on-screen timestamp says 9 a.m.

The commentary was hilarious.

Adams' support in New York City's general election is languishing in the low double digits, according to a new poll from political consulting firm Slingshot Strategies.

The survey shows Democratic nominee Zohran Mamdani leading the field with 35% of the vote, followed by former Gov. Andrew Cuomo at 25%, Curtis Sliwa with 14%, and Adams trailing with just 11%.

The numbers reflect a dramatic erosion of support across key demographics. Once-reliable backers appear to be turning away: only 16% of Black respondents said they would support Adams in a general election. In a striking twist, his strongest showing came from Republican voters, 26% of whom said they would back the mayor.

Adams’ campaign spokesperson Todd Shapiro dismissed the poll's findings, calling it "just another example of how out-of-touch and unreliable political polling has become."
