Andrew Cuomo is no hero. He's to blame for New York's coronavirus catastrophe
The Guardian ^ | May 20, 2020 | Lyta Gold and Nathan Robinson

...Federal failures played a role, of course, but this tragedy was absolutely due, in part, to decisions by the governor. Cuomo initially “reacted to De Blasio’s idea for closing down New York City with derision”, saying it “was dangerous” and “served only to scare people”. He said the “seasonal flu was a graver worry”. A spokesperson for Cuomo “refused to say if the governor had ever read the state’s pandemic plan”. Later, Cuomo would blame the press, including the New York Times for failing to say “Be careful, there’s a virus in China that may be in the United States?” even though the Times wrote nearly 500 stories on the virus before the state acted. Experts told ProPublica that “had New York imposed its extreme social distancing measures a week or two earlier, the death toll might have been cut by half or more”...

The Guardian gets it right for a change, although I’m not really into the blame-game thing. The fact is that very few saw this coming, very few thought that it would turn into what it has become, and that very few does not include any politician I can think of, and few if any journalists. I do recall that Tucker Carlson seemed more concerned than just about anyone in the media.

I tend to agree with that. But Cuomo’s decision to send Wuhan virus patients into nursing homes is inexcusable. A 10-year-old could have predicted the tragic outcome of that policy.

I still don’t understand why Cuomo did that. Special field hospitals were set up to handle the virus patients. And a navy hospital ship was available. Yet those virus patients were shoved into nursing homes.

Nope.

Did you read the article?

The Guardian is complaining that Cuomo wasn't tyrannical enough.

The Guardian wanted an earlier shutdown, more prisoners released from jail, more fear, and less school privatization.

The Guardian also said that Trump is worse than Cuomo.

Folks, please read the articles.

Of course, I read the article. I had to in order to excerpt from the middle of it to my post.

I don’t expect a publication like The Guardian to be anything other than what they are— a leftist publication.

But they do get that Cuomo should not be lauded as a hero, particularly when he has inconsistently behaved like a good leftist.

Cuomo is no hero— to either the Right or the Left.

And, this scion of Satan has the nerve to blame TRUMP for “forcing him to send COVID patients into nursing homes”! Trump gave them a Navy hospital ship which went virtually unused, a couple more large facilities, masks, ventilators—did Cuomo expect him to wipe his rear end for him, too? Apparently so, and DumblASSio as well. Those two couldn’t figure the way out of a wet paper bag with a guide dog and a map. The only thing they know how to do is point a finger of blame at somebody else.

I'm sorry. The Guardian wanting an earlier shutdown, more prisoners released from jail, more fear, and less school privatization, is not what I would describe as them getting it.

We'll have to agree to disagree.

I would also add that The Guardian makes no criticisms of Cuomo’s stupid EO’s that put COVID patients into nursing homes and that denied COVID patients from getting HCQ from their doctors and pharmacies.

Cuomo was too busy making TV appearances to think this thru.

And radio show appearances. Hannity had him on his for about an hour last week.
