President Trump fired back at Andrew Cuomo after the New York governor delivered a blistering Democratic National Convention speech criticizing the White House's response to the coronavirus pandemic.

In a tweet, Trump accused the three-term governor of being responsible for thousands of deaths in nursing homes, referring to Cuomo's controversial policy in late March that essentially ordered nursing homes to accept coronavirus patients from hospitals, a measure designed to free up hospital beds. (He eventually reversed the order in May).

"Now AP estimates that the real Cuomo number of people killed because of his total incompetence is 11,000, not the 6000 that was originally thought!" Trump tweeted.

It's clear the Chinese bought the DNC...

Cuomo calls coronavirus the ‘European virus’ in Trump-bashing DNC speech

Cuomo is Italian.

Call it the Killer Cuomo virus.

[SmokingJoe]

The DNC had Nursing Home Killer Cuomo give a speech on someone else screwing up on coronavirus?
That is like brand bringing in Stalin to give a speech on human rights. They know Cuomo is going to be ripped apart on this right? The New York Post will have a lot of fun mocking Cuomo on this one. As will Rand Paul.

[Bullish]

Yeah, and Cuomo’s already blamed you for all of those deaths Mr. President. Lies come easy to Cuomo, because the truth means nothing to people like him.

[Gene Eric]

He’s a nasty a-hole.

[SmokingJoe]

Of all the humans on this planet, the worst person the Dems could have chosen to spew about coronavirus was Killer Cuomo, the world's biggest coronavirus killer from sheer incompetence, with more deaths per million in New York State than any country on the planet. They have left themselves open to counter attacks from every conceivable direction.

[Bob434]

what the heck is cuomo doing attacking anyone? He should know they are going to point out the FACT that he personally signed the death warrants of 10’s of 1000’s of NY’ers by refusing them HCQ and sending sick into nursing homes-

Is he that clueless?

[MAGAthon]

and, as he sent thousands to their deaths in nursing homes, while they simultaneously infected thousands in the nursing homes, the FakeNewsMSM created a new “rock star” with a daily coronavirus press conference they said was heavenly.

[jonrick46]

One thing certain about these DemonKKKrat narcissists is they have a nasty habit for blame shifting. I think it started when they stole all of the cookies out of the cookie jar and blamed it on their little brother. Cuomo has never matured as a man.

[JudgemAll]

Thank you fox News for having the Cuomo brother morons non stop during the crisis, making these idiots stars.

What soulless reporting.

[mewzilla]

Thats not all he did.

He also allowed confirmed positive employees at nursing homes to report to work until he changed the policy in mid-May.

He also had NYS not count nursing home patients who died of WuFlu at the hospital as nursing home deaths.

He’s also stymied any investigation into his policies.

[mewzilla]

And from a couple of weeks ago...

Families of the folks who already died are still without recourse.

Far more here....

Only certain people get protection.

Holy cow.

[ronnie raygun]

Did Andy mention the 5500 he murdered in nursing homes? Or the thousands he eventually murdered by banning hydroxy and forced them into hospitals put on ventilators and charged medicare 52000 dollars each?

[heterosupremacist]

Keeping in mind that speech was directed at imbeciles, and irrational never-Trumpers, it was a brilliant piece of propaganda. 🙄 Any voter capable of thinking critically and objectively, will see it for what it is, they will NOT be deceived by this evil governor.

[chopperk]

Cuomo should be prosecuted for the deaths of thousands of Seniors in Nursing Homes because he wanted the money from the Feds for placing Covid 19 patients in the homes...According to Fox Nww over 10,000 Seniors were killed by Cuomo.........

[Right Wing Assault]

Isn't it the Moldovian flu?

[Bob434]
