My dad is a typical Manhattan dem who has been gobbling up Cumo's Strongman Act all pandemic. I brought Cuomo up and dad suggested someone is orchestrating this, maybe it's Republicans, maybe it's Trump's people, but someone SOMEONE is out to get him.

I detailed how the allegations are coming from multiple public figures and verified by others, he didn't seem to know any of the poo poo with Ron Kim or about the other staffers.

His heart is in the right place, but it sucks that we're gonna have to deal with liberals defending this guy in this way.

Thousands, if not TENS of thousands of appointments have opened up at the borough-specific sites at Medgar Evers (Brooklyn) and York (Queens), as well as at the citywide site at Javits. No new qualifying groups have been added yet, but for anyone in the current groups, that's a lot of dang appointments!

speaking for my inlaws who work in and around the administration how dare these women challenge such a great man! he definitely believes in all the progressive policy pablum technocratic garbo that even if it was helpful to people isn’t actually ever implemented regardless of the propaganda that tells you it’s being done!

well her threshold for what’s inappropriate isn’t calibrated correctly, I routinely suffer silently which is, in fact, Good and not Bad

he’s such a pro political operator he would NEVER do something like this

I'm looking at past elections for Governor and even Pataki, the last Republican who won, in 2002, didn't break 50, instead benefitting from a split vote. Astorino in 2014 was the next highest at a bit over 40. Is the Democratic bench so bad off that there's nobody they could run to beat a Republican next year other than Cuomo?

You gotta beat Cuomo in the primary first, and that's not going to happen while he has the support of the Democratic establishment.

I’m not talking about the 2022 election, I’m talking about what we’re about to have between Cuomo’s inevitable impeach-ignation and whoever rides in on a white horse to save us in 18 months.

My impression is that they are arguing that him resigning will lead to the Trumpocalypse here somehow, rather than just talking about how this'll play out in the primaries in which he'd still be running.

Do you honestly still subscribe to this puerile dichotomy of Democrat=Good and Republican=Bad?

By your own account the state got to the limping, decrepit place it is by virtue of an uninterrupted string of Democratic leadership

Either Cuomo is already as bad as a Republican and therefore this whole line of speculation is spurious or he isn't. Pick a lane.

A lot of people on this forum, myself included, are of the opinion that there’s no daylight between reps and dems.

Regardless of his party affiliation, I’ve hated Cuomo since he vetoed universal PreK and I’m glad to see this whole thing go down.
