Should be investigated. Democrats in New York State are clearly not trusting of Cuomo.

He deserves what he gets with this not being transparency.

Governors who chose strategies to mislead by shifting numbers/deaths etc.....should be held accountable.

And staff who report them should not be treated as criminals.

Those responsible in Cuomo's organization absolutely should face consequences for this. I agree with you though, mentioning the left/right responses in this thread is interesting. They speak to a trend I see more and more between the left and the right. Those on the left are not shy about calling out those in their own ranks who are corrupt. Threads like this? I'm in full agreement, it is horrible. Many on the right anymore seem to take the stance that they have to defend EVERY right wing politician. We only grow if we are willing to call out the corrupt in our own ranks. That's something the left does better than the right, right now at least.

Again. I just said if there was criminally involved it should be prosecuted and investigated. Nobody is arguing that...

The argument is the fake outrage and fake caring about people who died. You don't give a crap about that. All you see is YES gotcha! It's all politics.

Easy enough to just say he did nothing, but not true.
Wow. The bare minimum lets all clap and celebrate. Doing the job is having a plan. Telling the America people the truth. Covid was suppose to go away last easter I though? It's just a hoax? Liberate. Don't wear a mask. Don't listen to the doctors. I'm not responsible. Leave it to the states cause this is not a nationwide issue?

Please. If a Democrat was president and if he or she did what Trump tell every single Trumpster would be screaming from Earth to the Sun.

Exactly. The right has always saw politicians as cult figures. Everyone needs to follow 100% right wing talking points....If even a tiny nudge set out of those talking points immediately you're extreme left and the isms.

Politicians work for us. They should not be cult figures. Right wingers always need to feel "outrage" .......they always need a boogey person to vent anger at.....Cuomo is the prefect politician. He's in a blue state. A huge power name in the state. And most importantly people from across the US would watch him during the daily press conferences when there no leadership coming from the white house.

As I have said in this thread criticizing Cuomo is fair game, but one cannot say Trump did an excellent job at covid. He did all he can...Does NOT work that way. It really shows the person they are. They made Trump into a cult figure who literally can take everything away from them and find someone else to blame.

how many times have you totally believed what some politician has told you? Most people should know by now that simple common sense dictates what you should do to keep yourself safe.............

Yep.... But instead Trump told America to "breathe deeply". WTF..... I can't even begin to imagine what the past year would have been like if we had a real leader in charge. A very different world. We are at a dangerous point in history.

Let's see? You said "Trump did absolutely nothing". I pointed out a few examples where you were 100% wrong
