25. I'm not trying to make a connection.

I’m just attempting to make the point that it’s shameful to dig in to remove a governor, who just happens to have been a presidential
contender, when a former president incited an insurrection in real time on TV and has not been charged. Not to mention his involvement in fraud, and attempts to illegally influence election officials. This juxtaposition is telling, to say the least. I want to hear Cuomo’s defense, I want to know more about those who accuse him after having been scorned. I want to know why no one charged him before now. After all, predators don’t just wake up that way. This behavior develops over a life time. Plus, why are you so confident that the investigation is legiimate. Was it an investigation with a desired result already in mind?
