New York governor is charging that the Republican president is trying to punish New York through a series of recent federal acts: from quietly cutting funding for a study proposing a sea wall to protect the New York City region from coastal storm surge flooding, to restricting New Yorkers from federal programs that allow travelers to avoid long security lines at borders and airports.

Gov. Andrew Cuomo, a Democrat, told reporters Wednesday that the President Donald Trump is punishing blue states including New York over their politics as he runs for re-election.

Trump has often complained about New York on Twitter, recently tweeting that “it’s very hard” to work with the state.

It’s like dealing with a bunch of unruly kids.. Send in the nuns, Mr. President. These 2nd generation politicos are a rotten bunch. Treat ‘em like it.

What a whiner. The whole State isn’t blue doofus. In fact, we tossed your father’s ass out of office in 1994. Be nice if we could do the same to you. Typical liberal, he has no idea that there are other cities in the State beside New York City.

New York is paying for Cuomo’s stupid political posturing
- His green-light law means NY’ers can’t access trusted-traveler programs
- He wasted $1 billion trying to burnish his green-credentials by giving the billionaire Elon Musk a new factory
- He insistence on no fracking or new gas pipelines means NY Utilities have no capacity to service new customers

I remember when Trump told him via twitter not to bring Fredo to their WH meeting, people wondered if that made the Gov Michael or Sonny.

I think the Gov is more like this Corleone sibling.

Payback. Obama frequently snubbed Texas because it didn’t vote to elect him. We lost a space shuttle over it.

So, stop whining, Cuomo.

Sounds like Andy has got The Sadz.

Maybe Fredo Cuomo can fix this for his brother...

Maybe the first issue. The second isn’t about “being blue” at all, but rather about NY acting in a plainly unlawful manner.

Geez Andy, its really hard to make your father Mario the Pious seem to be smart but you’ve done it. If its any consolation Fredo makes you look a little less stupid - but not much!
