Cuomo

[Skidmore]

I've been watching him for a couple of weeks now. I've heard he has the reputation of being a jerk. He impressing me as he deals with this corona epidemic.

[spanone]

1. I feel the same. K&R

[evertonfc]

2. in 30 years of working with and around politicians

most are jerks. Even the good guys.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

3. It's possible to be a jerk and be competent at the same time.

Right now competence is more important than niceness.

[Skidmore]

7. He has skills.

Found something to diplomatically thank Trump about while making an earlier point that organization is woefully absent federally.

I'd vote for him. He's doing a great job with emergency management. Sounds like he knows who to tap for expertise.

[ooky]

4. Right now he is leading.

And coincidentally the market has been improving a little bit during his speech.

[Skidmore]

12. Makes Trump look like a poker.

[Claustrum]

8. Me too. I lived in NY for many years

I usually at least find something to disagree with him when he speaks. But I haven't found anything to disagree with him today. Everything he talked about makes a lot of sense.

[Mike 03]

6. Same here. I'm listening to him now on Bloomberg Radio.

His directness is what is needed.

[mobeau69]

9. He comes from good genes.

[luvallpeeps]

10. Coherent, concise even.

After 3 years of the big word-usin' bunghole, it doesn't take much to impress me. I just want someone to tell the truth in an understandable way.

[JCMach1]

11. Truth

Damn we need this

[tishaLA]

14. He, Gov Newsom of CA, and Gov Inslee of WA

have been picking up the slack for the failures of the federal government and have added sane voices to help counteract what's been coming out of the current regime.

15. Glad I live in

Washington state!!
