“With these numbers, What are the chances of this impeachment going through?”
Probably, not as bad as you might think. Cuomo has become toxic to the Democratic brand. Not because of the sex scandal, as he’s a Democrat, after all. But the potential genocide accusations that will arise and tar all Democrats, are like leaving an unexploded bomb on the living room table. You can surround it with potted plants, but it is still there.
The probable reason why Cuomo sent infected people into the place where they would do the most damage, instead of to the hospital ships and emergency hospital Trump set up, is to lower the budget costs of having those people in state care. The way it works is, those people turned over their entire possessions to the state in exchange for state care. The state then uses and actuarial table to charge their assets for their care. A former boss of mine had two relatives in New York’s state care. They both went in with several million dollars in assets. When they died they both had exactly $50 left. The reason I suspect this is, New York also released hundreds of prisoners. If masks worked, as they said they would, they’d have simply given them all masks. But it costs thousands of dollars to maintain each inmate. Those costs suddenly vanished, to the great advantage of New York’s budget. I think Cuomo saw the pandemic as the answer to all his budget problems. Notice that
That is what the Democrats are afraid will surface and destroy them all. Thus, a lot of Democrats will probably vote to impeach him. Don’t believe this is even possible? Here’s a quote from Ezekiel Emanuel, one of Obama care’s architects. Essentially, “No medical help for anyone older than 75.”
Depends only on one thing $$$$$$$$$$$ who wants the open slot?.
