In an effort to honor the victims of a nightclub tragedy in the Dominican Republic, Mayor Eric Adams wore a T-shirt with an incorrect translation. Instead of the intended Spanish phrase "en Dios confiamos," the shirt read the Italian "in Dio confidiamo," which drew ridicule during his press conference. The gesture was meant to remember the 225 lives lost, including former athletes. Reactions to the mishap were critical, reflecting a pattern of missteps associated with Adams.
Instead of the Spanish "en Dios confiamos," the mayor's shirt read "in Dio confidiamo," an unfortunate mix-up that drew mockery and criticism.
Adams noted the shoddily-fonted tee was his way of recognizing the tragic loss of life at Jet Set nightclub back on Santo Domingo on April 6.
