In a 17-minute video, Cuomo pitched himself as an accomplished moderate who can save a city he described as threatening and “out of control,” and is capable of navigating the delicate balance between working with Republican President Donald Trump and fighting him, when necessary.
“I am not saying this is going to be easy. It won’t be easy, but I know we can turn the city around, and I believe I can help,” he said.
The Democrat is expected to mount a formidable campaign, despite entering the race deeply wounded by the scandal that forced his resignation as governor in 2021.
“Working with Donald Trump” is a good call, given that Cuomo meets the basic requirement of being a sexual predator. And fighting him “when necessary?” If that isn’t “literally all the time,” then what are we even doing here?
Just another nepo baby trying to maintain a political dynasty who has no interest in the actual wellbeing of the common citizen.
Let an actual progressive run, for a change.
