In a normal working class Brooklyn New York neighborhood here, not the hipster or activist parts of town. I've seen far more public support for Trump than 2016, especially among black folks.
Many people hate Trump's personality or have heard some bit of fake news about him that they haven't managed to shake free of yet, but literally everybody I've talked to hates what's going on in the city and despise Cuomo and DeBlasio. People can't live in NYC with cops not supported and crime being allowed to increase. Businesses are shutting down left and right due to crazy ChinaVirus rules. Nobody can go out to eat at a restaurant like normal times and enjoy it. Most normal people see the economic death spiral the city is in where taxpayers flee, leaving behind the people who don't pay taxes. It's not sustainable. I think just the ~5% of crazy commies really like this state of affairs right now.
I'd still think that getting a victory in NY is unlikely, but Trump will have a far stronger showing here than polls will predict. If the fix wasn't in and there was all in-person voting, I'd think Trump would have a chance of winning NY if he focused on it.
