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.

Vito - Don’t ever tell anyone outside the family what you are thinking
The loud-mouth murdering POS should already be in jail and facing a death sentence for mass murdering all those innocent elderly folks.
He needs to be gone. It’ unfit to be governor of anything.
That is a threat. Very thinly veiled.
President Trump can shoot a New York Governor on 5th Avenue and we will still support him. ;)
Trollmaster Trump!
He knows the RATs are freaking out about Antifa, BLM.
The libs are so predictable & Trump knows they’ll double down on the anarchy in their cities. If they had any plans to bring in National Guard, start dealing with the rioters..they won’t now because Trump would win.
Their blind hatred of Trump will cause more chaos, deaths etc..and re-elect Trump to another four years.
Then a democrat tells Trump he'd better bring the army if he wants to visit a democrat run city.
You can't have it both ways, which is it?
These Commie Leftist mayors are resisting the national guard because they know it is the solution to the riots. They don’t want any solution because they can blame the havoc on Trump.
These Demonkkkrat loonie tunes think we can’t see through their effort to maximize the economic damage from the riots. The more the damage, the better. Lenin wrote in The State and Revolution: “We have already said above, and shall show more fully later, that the theory of Marx and Engels of the inevitability of a violent revolution refers to the bourgeois state. The latter cannot be superseded by the proletarian state (the dictatorship of the proletariat) through the process of ‘withering away,’ but as a general rule, only through a violent revolution.”
We are seeing the “Resistance” growing and moving into more cities. It is a cancer that is growing steadily to the point where it cannot be controlled. If The DemonKKKrats get power, they will make sure it gets to the place where revolution ushers forth the new order.
Come to the South shore of Staten island president Trump. You will be greeted like a conquering hero.
Of course you will have your SS and your private security.
and a few hundred thousand Italians ready to end anyone that means harm to you.
We are part of New York City. The best part.
“He better have an army if he thinks he’s gonna walk down the street in New York. “
So Cueball is saying NYC is a dangerous place now on his watch? Yes, Trump could get trampled by stampeding liberals on their way out of the city.
“Why would President Trump want to go to that Sh!t hole?”
Trump owns massive real estate there for one. Secondly, He’s the president of the United States, and thirdly, to show Cuomo how a real leader leads.
Cuomo is learning that, but he’s stubborn and slow.
As New Yorkers are fleeing the city, it’s like cuomo is reliving Hitler’s last days in his bunker.
“ The Democrat party is nothing more than a bunch of treasonous totalitarians and MUST BE DESTROYED”
Coetus Democratorum delendus est.
Nonsense. I have faith in the endless delusions of New Yorkers to predict that Biden will win NY by 25%.
Hey, Big Fredo...POTUS will be in town in a few weeks for the U.N. General Assembly...what are you gonna do about it.
Actually, Trump will be among the few heads of state to physically show up for that UN meeting. Most will be Zooming it in.
He can count on me. +1
Cuomo is guarded by the New York State Police, but, oh gee...their union endorsed President Trump:
