New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo on Wednesday all but threatened President Trumps safety if he returns to New York City in a rant responding to an exclusive story by The Post that Trump is looking to pull federal funds from lawless cities including New York.
Cuomo called an emergency press briefing within a half hour on Wednesday night to tear into Trump for the order, which cites New Yorks rising murder rate and defunding of the NYPD.
He better have an army if he thinks hes gonna walk down the street in New York. New Yorkers dont want to have anything to do with him, the Democrat said, all but threatening the commander in chief.
But Cuomo, who like Trump hails from Queens, wasnt done. He cant have enough bodyguards to walk through New York City, people dont want to have anything to do with him.
On substance, Cuomo said he doubted the legality of Trumps five-page memo ordering a review of federal funds that can be redirected from New York City, Portland, Seattle and Washington, DC.
It is more of the same from him. Its political, it is gratuitous. And its illegal. But it is another attempt to kill New York City, Cuomo said.
President Ford said drop dead. President Trump has been actively trying to kill New York City since hes been elected, he said.
In highly personal and insulting language, Cuomo speculated that Trump wasnt upset about New Yorks soaring murder rate and shootings.

Well, as it so happens... :)
The union representing the NYPD has endorsed Trump so yeah he has an army of NYC Finest to support the Secret Servica.
Please Explain how the contradictory statements “President can’t have enough bodyguards” and “New Yorkers don’t want anything to do with him” intersect? On one hand you’re suggesting that the President is in mortal physical danger. On the other, that the basic impulse of New Yorkers would be to — I dunno — ‘shun’ the president? Doesn’t make sense, Sonny! On one hand it’s “Bada Bing”! On the other it’s “not personal, just bidness”...
I think it started back in the 60's when Jane (spit) Fonda went to Nam, and it's been steadily getting worse all these years... And now it's about to came to blows.... :(
Threatening bodily harm to the President.
I think that's one problem with the Cuomo brothers; they're both Fredo.
He has snapped. He’s on the hook for having murdered 11,000 senior citizens. It’s being investigated by the Feds now.
Andrew is more like Sonny - brash, big-mouthed stupid bully.
