Hillary Clinton endorses Cuomo, says he's ‘getting things done’

HEMPSTEAD — Hillary Clinton backed Gov. Andrew Cuomo for a third term at the Democratic state convention Wednesday, praising the incumbent’s record in one of her first political appearances of this cycle.

"People in every corner of this state are mounting a massive resistance,” Clinton said, noting Cuomo’s work to help Puerto Rico recover from Hurricane Maria and his push to raise the minimum wage. “We need leaders who believe in producing results, and getting things done. Leaders like Andrew Cuomo and [Lt. Gov.] Kathy Hochul.”

Clinton’s speech focused mostly on broad party principles, including quality health care, combating climate change, supporting abortion rights, comprehensive immigration reform and “getting money out of politics.”

“If you want an economy that works for you and your family, you’ve got to vote for Democrats,” she said. “If you want to be sure people have affordable, quality health care, you’ve got to vote for Democrats. If you want to protect and expand the rights of all Americans — not just those in the top 1 percent — you’ve got to vote for Democrats.”

She I’d THE PERFECT person to endorse Prince Andrew, even though his corruption and ruinous record doesn’t hold a blowtorch against her crimes. Perfect fit.

Hillary is for "getting money out of politics"??

Take her literally!! She and Bill have been "getting money out of politics" for their entire political careers--$500,000 here, $200,000 there, and "whatever you're willing to give" from even the poorest citizens!

Now if only Bathhouse Barry endorsed Cuomo we’d have a guaranteed loser

Like all Democrats, including NY Senator Clinton, they accomplish nothing FOR the people, they take away rights and money and call it a success.

Hillary ... sticking it to the gay female candidate ... obviously she doesn’t care about women or the “gay community”

Hillary hanging with her elites, as usual ... before she goes back out on the endless sympathy tour

Hillary must be bragging and proud that Cuomo is destroying New York on their schedule.
