New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) reminded Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) on Thursday that for all his trash talk about blue state bailouts, the GOP leaders state is the one that reaps the benefits of New Yorks payments to Uncle Sam.
During his daily press conference, Cuomo pointed out that not only does New York chip in more money than Kentucky, the Empire State also takes less from the federal coffers than it contributes unlike Kentucky.
Senator McConnell, whos getting bailed out here? Cuomo asked.
Its your state that is living on the money that we generate, he continued. Your state is getting bailed out. Not my state.
