Comptroller Scott Stringer's mother, Arlene Stringer-Cuevas, 86, died on Friday after testing positive for coronavirus. During a Monday interview on CNN, Stringer blamed Trump for his mother's death. In New York City, this is playing out in so many families, and I’ve got to tell you, Donald Trump has blood on his hands, and he has my mom’s blood on his hands. And he sent us a hospital here in the Manhattan harbor, and no one can get on that hospital," Stringer said. "This is something that’s just outrageous, and so it’s very tough to mourn under these circumstances."
