Gov. Hochul was fittingly ridiculed last week for urging wealthy New Yorkers who fled the state for Florida to return and bring their rich friends with them.
“We need your money” was the gist of her plea.
She has zero chance of success.
The rich didn’t get rich by being so easily duped, but Hochul had to know that. So why did she decide to make a fool of herself?
It’s not because she’s dumb, but because she thinks voters are — and that they have short memories.
After all, this is the same Hochul who, during her 2022 campaign, told her GOP opponent, Rep. Lee Zeldin, then-Dutchess County Executive Marc Molinaro and Donald Trump to get out of New York.
“Just jump on a bus and head down to Florida where you belong. OK? Get out of town. Because you don’t represent our values,” she told them then.
Fast forward to now, and Hochul knows her re-election hopes could depend on whether she can shake the image of being a high-tax and big-spending Democrat.
Count that as mission impossible because her record doesn’t lie. Which is why she is reduced to stunts and babbling about making New York more “affordable” and putting “money in your pockets.”
The promises are smoke and mirrors and are at odds with her policies that have hiked state spending by 20 percent, or $54 billion, since she took office in 2021.
And she’s about to start another budget season with the lefty-dominated Legislature eager to do more taxing and spending.
In that context, Hochul’s Florida plea was one of two moves she made last week that demonstrate she is running scared — and as fast as she can away from her record.

Ho-Kal is in a New Jork state of mind. Very similar to Californicatia.
She is a troglodyte, like Newscum, both have created an exodus movement into Florida and Texas.
Both states now belong to demographic invaders.Let them go bankrupt.
It’s fun watching Hochul on her knees begging...no self respect at all.

More hokum from Hochul…hahahahaha.
New Yorkers couldn’t be clueless enough to reelect her could they? ... after all look at the outcome of the Governor’s race in NYC ...oh wait ...
Hochul, why not LEAD New York? That's what Leaders, like Ron DeSantis, does.
Unbelievable this lady can spew this stuff with a straight face. Who would even considering moving back with threats of even higher taxes?
That's to win reelection. The ol' switcheroo happens the next day. Everyone knows.

How funny that her words have come back to haunt her.
