Gov. Cuomo says: Trump ‘better have an army’ to protect him if he comes to NYC

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo on Wednesday all but threatened President Trump’s 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 York’s rising murder rate and defunding of the NYPD.

“He better have an army if he thinks he’s gonna walk down the street in New York. New Yorkers don’t 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, wasn’t done. “He can’t have enough bodyguards to walk through New York City, people don’t want to have anything to do with him.”

On substance, Cuomo said he doubted the legality of Trump’s 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. It’s political, it is gratuitous. And it’s 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 he’s been elected,” he said.

In highly personal and insulting language, Cuomo speculated that Trump wasn’t upset about New York’s soaring murder rate and shootings.

On what legal basis can a governor keep a citizen from visiting his residence? Oh maybe he’d have to do the 14 day quarantine thing.

Trump was just in riot torn Kenosha with no fears whatsoever. Doesn't sound like a guy who is intimidated by anybody.
Meanwhile, the fearful, cowering g Slow Joe hid in his basement until Trump had been to Kenosha and given the all clear, before venturing out himself.

Delta needs to be hovering over the Govoners Mansion in stealth blackhawks and repelling down, taking him into custody and spiriting him off to GITMO right now.

Perhaps he thinks POTUS is the COMMANDER IN CHIEF of a Jewish Deli? What an absolute moron. I can see why his daughter looks like porn star road kill.

Why are blue areas so violent? How much more likely are you to be physically assaulted wearing a MAGA cap in a blue city vs. a Biden 2020 hat in a conservative GOP-voting town/city?

Cuomo needs a Pinochet helicopter ride.

I wonder if he'd scream, mitt his shorts, or both as he was "escorted" groundward...?

President Trump has an Army, a Navy, an Air Force, Marines and a Space Force. Mario Cuomo apparently had two sons named Fredo.

The irony from the man who has about single-handedly destroyed NYS.

I don't know any NYers who want anything to do with Cuomo.

Says the man who celebrates butchering babies and cold-bloodedly killed thousands of people in nursing homes.
