What an interesting turn of phrase!
I'm not sorry to see Cuomo go, BUT, if office grabass mandated removal, we would have no government left.
But, Kirsten, just who are these "governing partners"? Do they have names? Are they elected by the people of the State of New York? How often do you talk to them, or do they only talk to you?
It's a lot to unpack.
1. Cuomo is a white man.
2. The guy he threatened is Asian.
3. The guy he threatened is a Democrat.
Three strikes and he’s out — on one swing of the bat, no less. Baseball never saw anything like it.
I would argue that the pardners have designated Cuomo as scapegoat.
I argue that Coumo made the decision to send Covid patients to nursing homes because there was a feared shortage of hospital room availability. Someone, perhaps not even a New Yorker, created a nursing home bed equality with a hospital bed, thus creating space.
Since the problem with death and uncounted dead associated with nursing homes has seemingly spread to other states, perhaps this equality consideration was provided to the various Democrat governors from higher Democrats. The political dilemma solution outweighed the medical solution.
Using temporary hospital beds provided almost instantly by the President was politically unacceptable. Creating hospital beds at nursing homes was a politically palatable measure to solve the problem
