For Cuomo to really ascend, I think 2 things need to happen:

2) NY needs to get a handle on the virus. They need to be seen as a poster child for how to manage this existential crisis. The leadership of Andrew Cuomo needs to be seen as crucial in this fight.

2) The virus has to get worse. The US would have to see significant deaths in multiple locations. We’re not far above 1000 right now, and that number isn’t awe inspiring. If this virus gets worse in other locations, but is handled well in NY, Cuomo comes off as the hero.

But I think both of these things are unlikely. And Cuomo has no compelling case to make as to why he should be anointed Democrat nominee unless he can point to the virus situation. Other than that, he’s pretty much just a guy who decided not to participate in the primaries.

Hindsight is always 20/20, but in retrospect the strategy the DNC implemented 4-6 weeks ago may be remembered as one of the biggest blunders in political history. They rigged their primary process to clear the path for the one candidate in that whole group of misfits who is LEAST equipped to manage a national crisis.

Very good points.

I only see the virus getting worst in badly run cities. The cities Trump did not get in the first place.

Guiliani was going to win because of his handling of 9/11. Which he actually did handle well, unlike Evil Eyes Cuomo handling this mess.

The media will take care of the idol worship even though the arrogant brother of fredo, Cuomo will, blame trump and step on his di##. That’s what the left and the media does well. They even got the noble peace prize to be given to Obama for doing nothing but being black. This is a piece of cake
