Cuomo was live doing his daily presser and has taken Mitch to the proverbial woodshed. [View all]
He quoted both Mitch McConnell and Rick Scott of Florida in their hateful rhetoric over "bailing out blue states." Then he had a graphic with their faces showing how much more each their states receives in federal dollars compared to how much they pay in compared to the net amount paid in by New York and New Jersey.
He absolutely LAMBASTED McConnell's politicization of this crisis while people are dying and essential workers are risking their lives every day. He said Mitch's priority was his corporate donors while the Democrats' priorities were people including healthcare workers, first responders, essential workers and everyday people struggling to get by.
He talked about the efforts and generosity of everyday Americans and unveiled a huge mural of the donations of masks that have been made by people across the country. He called it a portrait of love and contrasted it with the vile political maneuvering by people like Mitch.
Very powerful. Cuomo is a leader.
