Cuomo's demands are overblown. He's just used to New York and California already getting everything and the rest of the nation getting the leftovers, since they're the most powerful states and the rest of us never get our fair share. Every time I fill up my gas tank I'm paying for the NYC subway, while they do nothing to pay for our highways in Louisiana.
Trump needs to do more for the people who supported him. All Cuomo has done is trash our President, accuse him of racism, attack him every step of the way. Here in Louisiana I'm embarassed we have a Democrat governor (its a fluke he won) but we have a Congressional delegation like John Kennedy and Steve Scalise that is VERY pro-Trump and supports him. I do hope that Trump rewards us for our support and loyalty. Nearly everyone here who isn't black supports Trump and many black people are warming up to him.
How about the whole world is in over its head on this.
No, South Korea seems to have it under control. And they are close to China and had less time to prepare than we did. I agree this is tough for everyone. Be we are America, we are suppose to be the best. Yet we were woefully unprepared for this.

I don't hate Trump. When he does something I agree with I have complemented him on here numerous times. I agree with banning flights from China and Europe. But being loose with the facts during an emergency is unforgivable. But the bar is very low for you. As long as its Trump up there and not a democrat you could care less what he does.

Just the truth. I can't believe that needs to be explained. For Libertarians like myself that is important.
So tell me, what is the worst thing Trump has said or done since the beginning of the pandemic?
No African nation has all the cases we have, so all their leaders are better than Trump.
/TDS logic.
You said above that no world leader could have handled this any differently. Trudeau and Canada have handled it very differently.
Considering that most African nations have barely even conducted a few hundred tests, I don't think we can reach a conclusion one way or the other about their leadership.

Cuomo got his figures from estimates and projections provided by McKinsey and Weill-Cornell. Why do you think his demands are not in line with reality?

I didnt say that at all.
Trudeau isnt handling this too well if his wife has it.
Is it just be or does it seem like Cuomo's continued bloviating on national TV is to get a buzz and approval from the masses in preparation for a 2024 presidential run ? I don't like the guy but he has certainly been player of the week, I've even seen some threads here on how great he is. One thing though, he is very good on camera and well articulated. I can see how the masses will fall for him.
