He is giving them the warning. Do it or I will.
And Trump has got to carry through. They’re counting on him not to do it.
Frankly, when I saw Cuomo’s insane rant yesterday, I was thinking he was basically announcing that NYS is no longer part of the United States and does not accept US authority.
I would say there may be a Fort Sumter moment when Cuomo attacks the Federal presence, except for the fact that most of the NG comes from Upstate people and they have been punished and reduced to poverty by Cuomo and probably don’t like him very much.
He says that but I a pretty sure he is bluffing.
