Cuomo: Trump's move to Florida is a ploy to avoid releasing his tax returns
The Hill ^ | November 1, 2019 | Jessica Campisi

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) said Friday that President Trump’s decision to switch his primary residence from New York to Florida was likely a move to avoid releasing his tax returns.

“My guess is that he was advised by his lawyers that it would help his case not to release his taxes to the Manhattan District Attorney if he could say he was no longer a resident of the state of New York,” Cuomo told MSNBC. “I could see it as a legal tactic, and the timing is coincidental.”

Cuomo added that since many people from New York and other parts of the Northeast move to Florida, Trump is “maybe planning on retiring."

“If anything, I think Donald Trump has alienated many of the people in the state of New York [through his policies]," he added. “To be a real New Yorker, you have to be inclusive. We don’t tolerate divisiveness.”

Septuagenarians and octogenarians never leave cold northern states for Florida.

Isn't Cuomo admitting here that the Manhattan District Attorney is already a weaponized tool of the Democratic/Deep State "Get-Trump" conspiracy?

I thought DA's were supposed to be apolitical??

Now wonder Pres. Trump wants out of that biased snake-pit

If that’s the case, I hope it works.

Rididculous. Moving couldn’t possibly help that. Moving will stop him from having to pay for big- mouthed far leftist NY political hacks demeaning slandering and lying about him, however. And it’s every American’s right to move anytime we wanna.

“... you have to be inclusive. We don’t tolerate divisiveness.”


But isn’t being intolerant “divisive”?

What “ploy”? It’s probably exactly the reason - and is a perfectly valid reason to do so.

De Blasio has got to be one of the stupidest people in politics.

So is Fredo's brother, the Gov of NY, who made this inane statement.

So Santino Cuomo was inclusive? He allowed Republicans to become members of the Cuomo Crime Family?

“To be a real New Yorker, you have to be inclusive. We don’t tolerate divisiveness.”

Same “inclusive, non-divisive” Governor who said real conservatives have no place in NY.

Sure lil Andy. Is that the reason why all the other millionaires are leaving NY too? Couldn’t be due to your families total incompetence running the state could it. When is your asshole family moving to Florida?

You’re right. Many of Class of 1955 have left the City and State. I personally have gone to live in North Carolina. In the first year I saved more than $8,000 in taxes, not including the filing of State Income taxes....

Trump is not required to release his tax returns by any law. Just some old precedent. He is establishing a new precedent not to release.

Keeping his tax returns private is his own business, not Fredo Sr.'s.

Hey Cuomo you effing poofter - tell us how you happened to to get cucked by a bartender. You just can’t take care of business, any business at all, can you, you narcissistic sod. And tell us why you so obsessed with the President? But only if your explanation is fit to print. If its a tingle up your leg problem, spare us. And last, tell us why 500,000 people left your state last year, or was it 2017? There’s a clue there, you drooling lobotomite
