Media star Andrew Cuomo has gone missing
NY Daily News ^ | 28/2/21 | Harry Siegel

There’s a reason that Gov. Cuomo, Emmy-winning TV star and best-selling leader of the fight against the coronavirus, has abruptly gone dark.

Actually, there are a few reasons.

The fatal moment, politically speaking, probably wasn’t Cuomo’s decision last March — when it looked like the hospital system here could collapse like it had in Italy — to require nursing homes to take medically stable patients back in from hospitals without testing them for COVID and to give both nursing homes and hospitals a legal shield. It’s his refusal, nearly a year later, to acknowledge the literally fatal consequences of that decision.

Last month, Attorney General Letitia James released a devastating report estimating that the number of deaths of nursing home residents in hospitals was 50% greater than the state had previously acknowledged, forcing Cuomo’s health commissioner to finally disclose 4,000 additional deaths tied to nursing homes.

Cuomo shrugged, arguing that since we already knew how many total people had died, the breakdown he’d concealed for nearly a year was a mere detail:

“Who cares [if they] died in the hospital, died in a nursing home? They died.”

That was remarkably callous, more so because he’d had so long to prepare his answer. But Cuomo simply isn’t built to admit a mistake.

Then came his chief aide Melissa DeRosa’s blackmail-attempt-turned-confession on a conference call with Democratic lawmakers two weeks ago. That’s where she told them that the administration hadn’t turned over the coronavirus-related nursing home death numbers they’d been asking for since last spring because Trump’s Justice Department had asked for the same numbers last summer.

We had one of our hospital ships parked in NY Harbor. Cuomo did not have to take the path he did.

“But Cuomo simply isn’t built to admit a mistake.” I love that line, it applies to a lot of politicians.

Correct. President Trump took a naval hospital ship and docked it in NYC harbor where it went unused. Only because Cuomo did not want Trump to get any credit at all. So he sent sick elderly people back to nursing homes to die while infecting others who died also.

All to deny Trump any kind of "victory" for just wanting to help.

Cuomo deserves whatever is about to happen to him, and then some.

Someone in the Dem leadership wants to destroy Cuomo. This all is an organized takedown. The question is whether those destroying Cuomo are more hostile and effective enemies of the people than Cuomo.

I will never understand how anyone would vote for a Democrat like Cuomo. The old maxim is still very true. People get the government they deserve.

If so, two questions...

Why?

And why sexual harassment and not corruption?

So is it possible he let people die because he didn’t want DJT to get credit for providing the assistance? One can’t be too cynical when dealing with democrats.
