Dem Gov. [Hochul] Drastically Changes Course Days After Vowing to Fight Back Against Trump
Townhall ^ | 11/9/2024 | Sarah Arnold

Posted on 11/10/2024 1:11:11 PM PST by simpson96

Democrat Gov. Kathy Hochul (D-NY) called President-elect Donald Trump to “reaffirm” how they can work together despite warning she would not play nice with him just days earlier.

A day after Trump won the election in a sweeping victory, Hochul, along with New York Attorney General Letitia James, promised to fight back against any potential "revenge or retribution” now that the incoming 47th president is back in the White House.

However, as I reported earlier this week, Trump lawyer Mike Davis offered a grim warning before they violate “Trump’s constitutional rights or any other American’s Constitutional rights.”

After that, it took no time for Hochul to straighten up. She called Trump to have a “very cordial” talk and tell him she would work with him on issues facing her state. “It was a very cordial call, and listen, I said I’ll work with anybody," the Democrat governor said. “I basically just reaffirmed there are areas we can work together, like infrastructure, where we rely on federal money, and he seems to share my priorities."

During the phone call, Hochul explained that she wants to work with Trump in protecting the CHIPS act to keep bringing back manufacturing jobs from overseas with projects and bringing Penn Station and the city’s subway city back to life

They got so used to having free reign to trample on the Constitutional rights of Trump and conservatives over the last 8 years that Hochul, James, Newsome and the rest of these commies thought they’d always be in power. Their comments this week were not made upon thoughtful reflection. They know the hammer is about to drop. But don’t worry, they will still plot in secret rooms against us...these commies will never truly learn. They must be discredited and destroyed politically for all time. Any that acted illegally to deprive others of their rights should rot in prison.

Poor governor Hochul. She had gotten out in front of her skis.

As with KaMAHla, we maybe sure Hoekle’s “values have not changed.” She’s just telling us she wants us to understand that she’s repainting her spots so as not to fall outside the current Democrat[ick] Party narrative.

So, do the dems not want to use their remaining war chest to sow chaos with the Barry’s ANTIF/BLM or illegals?

Have the dems made clear that if Gruesome, Hoekle or others want to be considered for 2028 that they’d better toe/tow the oligarchy’s dodge and weave narrative? What’s new for their 2nd-tier marionnettes?

Uh-huh. I think the real conversation went like this:

Trump: Who's your daddy?
Hochul: Look, I think we can work together.
Trump: Who's your daddy?
Hochul: We share priorities!
Trump: Who's your daddy?
Hochul: You are.
Trump: Say again?
Hochul: You are, Mr. President!

Speaking of NY, would Lee Zeldin make a good candidate for a Trump administration? Would he even be interested? I’m not sure what his long-term political aspirations are.

Thats’s not what I read. She said she was cordial and then went on to list the money she wanted from the feds for programs for NYS. I say Make New York Broke Again like when Mario Cuomo screwed up the state and the great exodus began

"[She told] him she would work with him on issues facing her state."

How about first working with him on issues facing HIM! Start with that vile Letitia James corruptocrat. Clear the deck of all the phone state charges against Trump, refund all the money you stole from him, and cancel the confiscation of Giuliani's property. Then MAYBE you can have a powwow.

Hochul is Schumer’s puppet. Anything that comes out of her mouth was written on his stationary.

Trump should lead a movement to remove the state tax deduction from the federal tax. NY and Massachusetts would freak over the sudden effects of their socialism.

The solution is to hands off NY and CA and leftist states that “fight”.

Let all the criminal aliens go there. Then no money for those states and no help.

Eventually they will crumble.
