President Trump tweeted out earlier Thursday that he was getting ready to meet with New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, but also took a whack at Cuomo’s brother, who works at CNN.
“I’m seeing Governor Cuomo today at The White House,” Trump tweeted. “He must understand that National Security far exceeds politics. New York must stop all of its unnecessary lawsuits & harassment, start cleaning itself up, and lowering taxes.”
Trump added: “Build relationships, but don’t bring Fredo!."
Donald J. Trump ✔ @realDonaldTrump I’m seeing Governor Cuomo today at The White House. He must understand that National Security far exceeds politics. New York must stop all of its unnecessary lawsuits & harrassment, start cleaning itself up, and lowering taxes. Build relationships, but don’t bring Fredo!

The “Fredo” reference is a nod to “The Godfather” films and Trump is comparing Chris Cuomo – a CNN anchor and the governor’s brother – to a character in the film who ultimately betrays his brother. The reference was first made by a Trump supporter last summer in a viral video that saw the television journalist get irate with the man for the insult.

Darn problem is, the novel doesn’t cover Fredo’s betrayal...or that whole never-go-fishing-alone-with-Al-Neri thing.
hahah ping!
The “Fredo” reference is not because he “betrayed his brother,” it is because Fredo was a hopelessly dumb brother!
Oh how I LOVE President Trump!
Does anyone from the WH read these threads?
PLEASE tell the BEST President EVER to KEEP TWEETING!
!!! TRUMP 2020 and BEYOND!!!
lol
“Trump insults Gov. Cuomo’s brother ahead of White House meeting: ‘Don’t bring Fredo’”
excellent way to set the tone for the Gov’s groveling ...
I'm seeing tomorrow's NY Post front page headline.

BWAAHAHAHAHAHA!
I don’t think many are that worried about Trump’s tweets. They may say so but that is just posturing. For one thing the gamemanship you listed is mechanical and predictable. A savvy enemy would just use it against Trump and they do regularly.
I think Trump does it just to rev up the base.
I SOOOOOO love this President.
In one statement, he’s telling Andrew not to make a spectacle of this thing, and insulting that putz brother of his, Fredo. He’s also demonstrating, once again, that he really doesn’t care if he hurts the feelings of those who come after him - that to him, that’s part of the can of whoopass that they decided to open up.
