broadway. i m proud to be a resident reporter: adams faced questions about whether he even lived in the city or in new jersey. and over the years, he s been dogged by ethics complaints, which he answers with derision. i like to always say i m a lion. and lions don t lose sleep over the opinions of sheeps. reporter: the times did an investigation that said that your fundraising efforts pushed the boundaries of campaign finance and ethics laws. they have their opinion, and i have my opinion. and i m going to let people know how i feel all the time. no sign of suffering from me. reporter: adams glides easily between new york s boroughs, the wealth of the nearby hamptons and night life in the city that never sleeps. to the joy of photographers and his opponents. eric adams is with the elites in the suites, the tiktok girls trying to sort of live up to the kardashians at club zero.
days. in mississippi, a version of that story has been front page news in multiple papers this week. we ve seen iterations of this same story this week in there s two papers in mississippi where it s been front page and iterations of the same story in kansas and missouri and alabama and oklahoma and texas and arkansas and florida and tennessee. those are just ones i happened to pull over the course of the week. i m sure it s happening in other states, too but it raises the question of why is it happening now. why are all over the country but particularly in red states that are having huge covid surges now, why is this thing happening with poison control centers having to come forward saying our calls are about this drug being taken for horses and cows and sheeps. health officials warning against using this livestock drug or anti-parasitic drug as if it s a covid medicine. why is this happening everywhere
i don t want to listen to it. i want to listen to what god s saying, what he s fixing to do. that s all i m concerned about. i think it is a time where god is separating the sheeps from the goats. you know? what are you? i am a goat because i ain t a sheep. i m not doing what they re telling me to do. i m fighting against it. frank luntz joins me now. frank, you do focus groups polling. you must get a lot you must hear a lot of folks with opinions like that. yes. and it used to break my heart. and now it just breaks my brain. it causes my head to explode because i know how dangerous covid is and the delta variant and i know how much more dangerous that is than the vaccine. but key moment and this is a key moment right now, we ve got about 30 days. number one, the delta variant, the public knows it, understands it, finds it more serious than covid. number two, our kids are going back to school right now and
that s all i m concerned about. i think it is time where god is separating the sheeps from the goats. reporter: what are you? i m a goat because i ain t a sheep. i m not doing what they tell me to do. i m fighting against it. donie o sullivan joins us now. do you think that the former president saying that he got the shot, although you said it was timid, nevertheless he did say it. do you think it convinced anyone? reporter: no, it didn t seem like that, anderson. i think that is something that trump knows. we know trump likes to take credit for things and he can in many respects take credit for the development of this vaccine, but he knows that so many in his base do not want to take this shot. it is a red line for them. and it s really remarkable to hear, you know, so many folks we ve spoken to do not want to be as that woman described it a sheep. they don t want to take this vaccine. they view it as a political statement almost.
don t personally see that that virus came over here on a duon key or elephant and it s affecting everybody. i watch prophets of god and newsmax and maybe a little fox, that s about it. that s about it. i ve kind of turned away from news. i don t want to listen to it. i want to listen to what god is saying, what he s fixing to do. that s all i m concerned about. i think it is time where god is separating the sheeps from the goats. reporter: what are you? i m a goat because i ain t a sheep. i m not doing what they tell me to do. i m fighting against it. donie o sullivan joins us now. do you think that the former president saying that he got the shot, although you said it was timid, nevertheless he did say it. do you think it convinced anyone? reporter: no, it didn t seem like that, anderson. i think that is something that trump knows. we know trump likes to take
