The governor of New York suddenly looks like the kind of take-no-prisoners pol his party needs. With one catch.
NEW YORK The scene is unfolding in the shabby headquarters of the Hotel Trades Council just off Times Square in the late spring of 2017, but its not hard to imagine the speech somewhere in the Rust Belt in 2020, with a Democratic nominee trying to reclaim the Upper Midwest for his party.
The truth is the middle class is under attack. The working families are under attack, Andrew Cuomo bellows, his tough-guy accent coming in a little thick. Middle-class wages are behind where they were 20 years ago. Think about it. All the pundits on TV say, We dont understand why there is such anger and anxiety.
Standing before a crowd of unionized hotel workers several hundred strong, the governor of New York rails against Republicans for feeding workers like them a lie all these years. He speaks to them like he alone understands what they have been going through, watching wages disappear while the rest of the country gets richer. Its the labor movement that built the middle class and its the labor movement thats going to have to rebuild the middle class in this country, he thunders. He has the room, completely.
Cuomo is a big-name politician who has long seemed an extremely unlikely national candidate until now, when suddenly hes seeming like a very likely one. In theory, he is here to ceremonially sign a bill that would allow union members to deduct their union dues from their state taxes, but its clear what he is really doing today is waging a bigger argument against President Donald Trump.....

Yo Mama!~ I said that because you probably do not know yo daddy!
Anyone who would vote for this loudmouthed dullard has reached a very elevated level of stupid.
Andrew Cuomo Could Beat Trump
There is only one thing this pinko skunk could beat...and it isn’t Trump.
Cuomo couldn’t beat a drum....
Who?
All this junk is liberal wet dream political porn to keep socialists happy and not thinking about reality.
Watch for some kind of new WEST WING type show to be released sometime this fall.
Someone like him might have had a chance in 2016, but after four years of nonstop Trump wins, I doubt anyone on the Dems “A” team will want to run against him and lose.
He is dirty and a good investigation / vetting would knock him out...
Aside from that , he is an idiot. That makes him a perfect Dem candidate. If Hillary can get many votes, so can Cuomo. If the Republicans succeed in disenfranchising the deceased and foreigners just passing through to collect benefits, Cuomo might have a problem. They are desperate to the point that they have become delusional. Sounds like David Freedlander is a putz.
How’s he going to do this from jail?
He has the idiot brother on CNN, yes?
This should be fun!!
And Hillary was a shoo-in....
Andy’s speech patterns will provide employment opportunity for out of work Elmer Fudd impressionists.
He always reminded me of Sollozzo from the Godfather.
Lemme guess....your grandparents shortened your surname from Ballinetti.
