Remember: NY Gov. Andrew Cuomo says America ‘was never that great’ - https://www.cnn.com/2018/08/15/politics/andrew-cuomo-america-was-never-that-great/index.html
After consideration of past performance along with the Wail n' Moan sessions since February, I've concluded that Cuomo walks out in front of a bunch of cameras/microphones and just reads whatever his handlers stuck in his hand.
...in point of fact (and JMHO), that's fairly typical performance for most of the media/political/elite culture.
