Andrew Cuomo slams NY, Georgia investigations into Trump as feeding 'cancer in our body politic'

[LiberalFighter]

IMO Cuomo is part of the NY Mafia family. He is part of NewsNation now which I have never watched and never will. I believe O'Reilly is also on. So it calls into question of the type of news they have.

Andrew Cuomo slams NY, Georgia investigations into Trump as feeding ‘cancer in our body politic’

Former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) slammed the New York and Georgia investigations into former President Trump as being part of a “cancer in our body politic,” arguing they are politically motivated.

Cuomo told John Catsimatidis, who hosts the talk radio show “The Cats Roundtable,” in an interview on WABC 770 that he expects Trump will be indicted in Manhattan next week. He said he “doesn’t understand” why Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg (D) is “putting such an emphasis” on the case investigating a hush-money payment made to adult film star Stormy Daniels ahead of the 2016 presidential election.

1. He is the single largest reason we lost control of the US House

I have detailed so many times his years of sabotage to the state, the assembly, the courts, and its voting system, especially redistricting..... all due his obsessive hatred of the progressives.

His bullshit 'non partisan' redistricting schemes he rammed through

His support of renegade Dems that stole control of the NY Senate from us and gave it to the Rethugs

His stacking the state courts with conservatives

Etc etc


His machinations cost us a net loss in 2022 of 12 to 16 seats just in NY. Just winning 6 of the seats would have kept us in control of the House.

Cuomo was an overall pox on our party for ages.

2. Strongly agree

4. Do you think there is hope for NY to reform any time soon?

I mean, Hochul isn't exactly inspiring confidence for the future...

But I don't know much about the particularities of the state's politics.

[Celerity]

11. I would think they need to start with undoing the damage Cuomo did at state level

Specifically, start by flushing that non partisan redistricting scheme (likely will take another constitutional amendment to repeal the one Cuomo rammed through in 2014) and replacing those conservative judges in whatever fashion is possible.

3. Wow. His father would have been so ashamed of his son if he'd lived to see this.

[Ritabert]

5. Says the irrelevant has-been

Hey Andy the cancer is already there when politicians commit crime after crime and get NO consequences.

[brush]

6. Pathetic. Seems he's turning red. Guess he sympathizes with...

aggrieved, white, male repugs because he also feels aggrieved after getting booted out of office because of own actions.

[Samrob]

26. Most of the folks who seem to be changing to the dark are not changing, they are just coming out

of their racist closets and exposing themselves for what they always were. Money is being red these days and it attracts the worst of us.

[Boomerproud]

7. I am ashamed that I ever thought he was like his father.

What a charlatan. 🤬

8. Didn't have dinner with KellyAnne Conway recently?

No good will come of that.

9. W.T.F.?

10. Disgusting but not surprising

[Tom Rinaldo]

12. I'm glad I didn't defend him here before he was forced out of office

I politically co-existed with Cuomo in NY. At times he used his accumulated power in positive ways, such as for gun safety. Sometimes he wavered but came down on the correct side, such as with anti-fracking laws But there was an authoritarian streak in him, and he would make deals with virtually anyone to further his ambitions. I voted for him, sure, and I appreciated his public stance regarding Covid, but I never trusted him, and I knew that overall our State Democratic party was in worse shape than it needed to be because of him.

13. Cuomo, you bitter

Rancid son of a bitch.

[niyad]

14. WTAF????

[Xandric]

17. Cuomo is corrupt

He and Sinema are seeking revenge because Democrats stopped liking them.

[Xandric]

15. Cuomo is butthurt because Democrats didn't support his corruption

He has no power now.

[Takket]

18. he'll be pulling a Sinema soon.

[Xandric]

21. Or he's broke an wants a Fox show

He would get hired at this pace.

[Takket]

16. "doesn't understand" why Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg (D) is "putting such an emphasis"

I know the answer to this......

He's doing it because it is literally his job.

[Arazi]

19. Fuck that guy. He's just mad he was held accountable too

[gldstwmn]

20. For the life of me I don't understand where he is coming from with this.

[ificandream]

22. Wrong Cuomo. It's his brother who's on Newsnation.

As for his criticism of the investigations, it sounds like sour grapes given he had to resign because of the sexual harassment accusations.

[LiberalFighter]

25. Sorry. Now that I think about it. That is the guy that was on a different network before.

[Xandric]

27. the article is about the former Governor. not the CNN guy

The Hill.

[pwb]

23. They were all politically motivated, by trump.
