New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo may have just handed Republicans a ready-made campaign ad for his rumored 2020 presidential bid – by declaring Wednesday that America “was never that great.”
The Democratic star made the seemingly offhand remark as part of his rebuke of President Trump's "Make America Great Again" slogan during a bill-signing in New York. But the line drew gasps from the crowd.
“We’re not going to make America great again. It was never that great,” Cuomo said, to an awkward blend of gasps and chuckles.
“We have not reached greatness, we will reach greatness when every American is fully engaged, we will reach greatness when discrimination and stereotyping against women, 51 percent of our population, is gone and every woman’s full potential is realized and unleashed and every woman is making her full contribution,” he said.
But the "never that great" line tore through social media in a New York minute, as journalists and his political rivals seized on the remark.

They’re trying to start another Soviet Union HERE.
The Hate America strategy worked for Soetoro.
Typical leftist who should be fed a history lesson.
Nothing is ever as good as what the leftist liars promise that leftism will (someday) supply. Great promises have been made by every leftist regime, with few ever delivered, and more often bring destitution, ruin and terror to their benighted citizens.
Under American freedom, the citizens make a promise to THEMSELVES - something much more likely to be achieved. It is what our Founding Fathers understood, and set a system into place to facilitate.
Cuomo - just another leftist who Lies as easily as he Breaths.
“start another Soviet Union?”
They have been trying to get one going HERE, actually since four years before the Bolshevik Revolution!
If you’re paying any attention to the democrats that is their message.
This is how the Democrats feel. His mistake was in openly saying what they actually think.
“We have not reached greatness, we will reach greatness when every American is fully engaged, we will reach greatness when discrimination and stereotyping against women, 51 percent of our population, is gone and every woman’s full potential is realized and unleashed and every woman is making her full contribution.”
Every American? Every woman? So, in other words, never. Even the GOPe idiots can beat this. Maybe we have all been unfair to Chris Cuomo. Is really any dumber than Andrew?
Ding! The Left hates America, hates the Constitution, hates the South, hates our Anglo-Saxon culture, hates our Free Market economy, hates Western Civilization.
They hate everything that isn’t socialism really. Sure there’s environmentalism but we all know that’s a vehicle for socialism. I would say the whole lesbian/gay/transgendered etc etc but really, the whole objective is to tear down society to rebuild SOCIALISM on the ashes.
Dems hate the USA so they are hell bent on destroying it with importing everyone from sh!thole countries!
Paging Marc Molinaro...there is your campaign ad. You don’t have to say a thing...but you ought to...and every chance you get. What an idiot Prince Andrew is...
The non-apology apology followed by “you deplorables are too stupid to understand my nuances” in 3...2...1.

Every once in a while democrats slip, and tell us what they really think of America.

Wow, he just came up with the Campaign Slogan for any of the Rats that decide to run for POTUS in 2020. Good Job Mario...
As an American of Italian Descent, I am more embarrassed by the Cuomo Clan than I ever was by the Gotti Clan.
should go to Cuba....
Cuomo: Is there a Club Med where I’m going?
Reply: “No, but there is a Club Gitmo. Same thing.”
Ocassio: “This is awesome. It’ll be like a sleepover. I’ll learn so much about the glorious island of socialism. But one thing: Why does this say I should bring my own toilet paper from home?”
First of all, what is this “every American stuff all about??? You want open borders, when it comes to goodies everyone in the world will in principle be an “American.”Secondly, who is this “we”? For the same reason as the first objection. Everyone in the world must be “great” for “we” to be “great.” Well, guess what! If everyone is “great" then no one is great.
I would be even greater if Andrew weren’t here....
