Admire Cuomo as much as you like. But please don't call him President.

Don't be cute and say (President) Cuomo.

Just - don't.

Doing that doesn't just throw richly deserved shade at *45. It also blurs the issue of who really is running for President.

We need diamond clarity and full focus on supporting our real candidate for President.

The fact that a good, strong governor can upstage the so-called president by just being himself says more about the low bar we have. We should be used to seeing good, strong leaders all over the place.

When did any good leader automatically get promoted all the way to president without passing Go?
Maybe when we had the cowboy actor in office?

I could say President Oscar the Grouch and it would be a huge improvement over our reality.
