Listening to Andrew Cuomo

[dflprincess]

Is there any way we can put him on charge of the federal response?

Not to take away from other governors who are going great jobs (like my own, Tim Walz) but I like Cuomo' s delivery. We need some NY bluntness in this.

1. He should be the president. I would even settle for Gov. Dewine over Trump. nt

7. Cuomo is Doing A Good Job Managing the CV-19 Crisis in NY But I Wouldn't Want Him as President

9. A given,... I would take Joyce DeWitt over tRump

[doc03]

11. I thought who was Joyce DeWitt wasn't she Janet on Three is Company.

Ok that is her she was born at the same hospital as me. Yes I would take her also over Trump.

14. He'll probably get a shot in 2024

No matter who wins 2020. I doubt Biden serves a second term.

[Sanity Claws]

2. I'm a New Yorker and think he is doing a good job.

It is obvious that he is in charge of what is going on in NY.

BTW, how does a non-New Yorker react to his NY accent?

[dflprincess]

13. I love NYC, the accent doesn't phase me.

I lived in western NY as a kid (very different, I know)
Even though my family moved back to Minnesota 50+ years ago, I was recently asked by a newly transplanted New Yorker (from the city) if I had lived "out east".

It's the "Fargo" accent that grates on me. Fortunately that is rarer than people think.

3. I too like Cuomo's approach.

Like Tim Walz, very hands on honesty that is seriously lacking from Trump. No bullshit.

As for Tim, I know him well that he does not BS anyone. He did not reach the rank of Command Sargeant Major on charm, he worked hard to achieve it. It takes LEADERSHIP. I trust Tim to put us first. Gwen is that way as well.

[dflprincess]

15. I agree, Walz is doing s great job

With a style that works for Minnesota. As you said, honest and no bullshit.

4. 100 times the man trump is...

[nuxvomica]

5. It's actually a pleasure to listen to him

"You are not Superman and you are not Superwoman." This is how a guy talks when he had a good relationship with his dad.

[jcgoldie]

6. Im very impressed with him

As a midwesterner have only known of him tangentially. He is calm informed and conscientious and the contrast with trump is shocking.

Was a huge fan of his dad like most of us here. I even had a bumper sticker in 1991 that said “undecided=cuomo”

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

8. He's doing a great job, and I've also been really impressed with Tim Walz.

Things aren't nearly as dire in Minnesota (yet?) as in New York, but Walz has been doing a good job of explaining what's going on and trying to stay ahead of the situation. I guess sometimes we need government after all.

[Catherine Vincent]

10. He is great. Wish he was in charge of the US

[wendyb-NC]

12. He is a leader for this time.

I felt so reassured by listening to his words, yesterday and today. He was straight forward, and quite level headed. He had the facts, about the virus and plans.

16. Better yet, is there anyway we can remove dump and make Cuomo our emergency president in charge?
