New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo on Tuesday again blasted the federal government for failing to provide relief for state and local governments amid the economic fallout from the coronavirus pandemic, saying New York City’s deficit is “Donald Trump’s deficit.”
“We have tremendous losses because of COVID, we're not liable for them,” Cuomo said. New York City has a $9 billion budget deficit and the state’s is $30 billion.
“I’m not accepting liability,” Cuomo continued. “I'm not accepting the premise that New York City or New York State should pay.”

Typical democrat.
Pay up cheapskate.
It’s ALL your fault.
Cuomo was never that great.
Like not pay the insane public union pensions?
LOL
He becomes more like a Mafia chieftain each day.
Maybe some real Mafia guys will handle him before he destroys NYC and NY!
There ya go! A commiecrat actually making excuses for NOT raising taxes?! Things MUST be bad...LOL!
The state’s vendors/service providers should demand payment in advance or refuse to provide the services—that is how everybody else deals with bankrupt entities.
Buying a Slurpy Machine! Cash only.
These dipshits are in the throes of bankrupting the state and have the nerve to blame Trump? It takes a special kind of stupid to be a Cuomo.
Cuomo talking BS before the election. Fed.gov is going to pay NY’s teachers? NY's share of medicaid? For state parks? Nonsense.
Cuomo is praying for a Biden win. A bailout using the power of Federal debt and Federal Reserve printed dollars is the ONLY way NY survives intact.
WTF?!
No dumas - You’re the governor - it’s YOUR DEFICIT.
The Federal government MAY bail you out but it has no responsibility to actually do so and if you had actually defended your citizens from this revolution you wouldn’t have anywhere near the deficits you’re having now.
Bite it dip wad. My state should not have to bail out your state because you dont know how to manage a budget.
The Gov and Mayor are really stupid people and deserve the debacle that is now NYC. And while we here in beautiful Florida welcome the Yankees to our state with your money what we will NOT TOLERATE is bringing your failed liberal politics to our state!!! Don’t want them and won’t have them!! Stay in NY.
G'night all.
[[[I’m not accepting liability,” Cuomo continued.]]]
Like he ever did with anything. Over a million people have left the state during his tenure. Yeah, its Trump’s fault.
The punk was never going to pay. He’s gone along with the virus killings and the street riots expecting that it will get him out of paying.
He should be hauled off by Federal Marshals to face charges for his killings and then it won’t be his problem.
I really do think Trump loves New York. God alone knows why. He could help to save it by getting rid of clown Cuomo.
Is Cuomo announcing that NY is going to default? that would cause some excitement.
