New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio slammed Andrew Cuomo for 'bullying' a state lawmaker who claimed the governor threatened to 'destroy' him unless he helped cover up the COVID-19 nursing home scandal.

During an interview with MSNBC on Thursday, de Blasio addressed the claim made by assemblyman Ron Kim who said Cuomo made threats as part of an effort to get him to 'cover up' for a top aide who admitted that his administration concealed the real number of nursing home deaths from the virus.

'It's a sad thing to say ... but that's classic Andrew Cuomo,' de Blasio told the network.

Those two terrors have been trading blows for years.
Punch, meet Judy! The “town” is not big enough to house two grossly over inflated egos.

How is the leftist media allowing all this to be discussed?

Unless part of a behind the scenes throwing Cuomo under the bus deal.

Mayor Bill isn’t the only one who’s waited a long time to kick Cuomo when he’s down.
Long past due.

More like a commie DeBlasio got the memo.
Apparently, the Democrats has decided to throw Cuomo under the bus. He doesn’t get to be VP when Harris succeeds Biden.

Powers to be don’t want Cuomo to get the VP spot when it becomes available.

Andy, did you hear what de Blasio just said about you on Twitter? You gonna let him get away with that?
Here’s an idea, you work to highlight, expose and prosecute
Chirlane McCray aka Mrs. deBlasio for ‘unexplained expenditures’.

Bill deBlasio’s wife can’t account for $850. MILLION dollars given to a mental health project!!

They're doing to Cuomo what they did to Joe Crowley.

Cuomo is hated by everyone. This is Hillary wanting to finally get rid of him because he posed a threat to the left getting their third Obama term with Kamaltoe Harris. Mario Cuomo shoved Andy boy on the Clintons after he helped Bill get elected in NY and accept his POS wife to be senator. Andy destroyed HUD and is so arrogant and evil that even the left cannot stomach him any more. His hand picked attorney general is against him. Cuomo is a fascist dictator tyrant who murdered the elderly with Covid along with murdering babies in the womb up to the moment of birth.

He is done. Too bad he will not be prosecuted. They will just get him out and NY will get its first female governor (who is useless.)
