CNN anchor Chris Cuomo, who was captured on a viral video getting into a profanity-laced exchange with a person who called him “Fredo,” once referred to himself as the hapless “The Godfather” character in a radio interview.

Cuomo was interviewed by Curtis Sliwa on his AM 970 radio show in January 2010 about whether his brother Andrew might seek the Democratic nomination for governor.

Sliwa said he dubbed the Cuomo family “la Cuomo Nostra.”

“There is a group of people — politicos — who always hint they might run, but not necessarily plunge all the way, and they are members of la Cuomo.”

“Who am I, then, Fredo?” Cuomo asked in response.

This makes him look even more foolish, and his reaction to being called that, seriously unhinged.

You Betcha.

Red Flag his arse.
That guy, should NEVER have access to guns.

If he doesn’t get a No-Knock visit at 5am to remove all weapons from his possession/control, then it should never happen to anyone in NY.

What say you Ms Leticia AG?

“Now I see the sensitivity to being called that. “

Rush claims he is the one that tagged Cuomo with “Fredo,” and that’s why Chrissie got so ticked off about it.

If you’ve got any brains at all, you learn by the 2nd grade that if somebody calls you something like “Stinky” you either beat the living snot out of them, or you totally ignore it - you don’t let them know it bothers you, otherwise you’re “Stinky” for the rest of your life.

Apparently Fredo never learned this.

A misleading description. Only Cuomo was being profane and aggressive. The guy he was badgering was being polite and trying to calm things down.

“Who am I, then, Fredo?” Cuomo asked in response.

The poor guy is going thru life knowing he's a loser. Explains why he's so terrible on the air.

RUSH said Cuomo was not as agitated about the kid being taunted by the drummer Indian at the Lincoln memorial. In fact, Fredo lambasted the kid, said he should have walked away. This "event" will forever be tagged to this idiot hypocrite, fake news fredo
