HEMPSTEAD — Gov. Cuomo said he’ll continue to trash President Trump, just not on the presidential campaign stump.

During his debate with Democratic gubernatorial challenger Cynthia Nixon at Hofstra University Wednesday, Cuomo, who has been mentioned as a possible presidential candidate in 2020, committed to serving a full four-year term if re-elected.

“Yes, yes and double yes,” Cuomo said when asked if he’ll serve a full term.

1. I missed the debate.

Sister called as I walked in tonight and it was over by the time the call was done. Was it a good substantive debate?

4. "we already have a corrupt corporate Republican in the White House..."

"...we already have a corrupt corporate Republican in the White House. We don't need a corrupt corporate Democrat in Albany.”

2. I dont think he'd do too well in the '20 primary. nt

3. I don't think he's presidential material, and there are others that would be better in my opinion...

....Corey Booker, Kamala Harris, Elizabeth Warren, and yes, Hillary Clinton to name a few.

5. He thinks too highly of himself.

7. So unlike Warren

It’s ridiculous to even compare their respective statements.

Meantime, if Warren’s not running, you should break the news to her inner circle:

8. He's going nowhere.

He’s a vindictive bully who tends autocratic, just like Trump, and who’d be driving a towtruck if he wasn’t born a Cuomo. His chief adviser/bagman Joe Percoco, “who is like his brother” was convicted of taking bribes, as was Alain Kalyeros, the head of SUNY Polytechnic, which was driving upstate economic development program. If you think for a minute that the Dark Prince, who micromanages every part of State Government, wasn’t aware of the schemes of Percoco and Kalyeros, he can sell you a bridge in Brooklyn.

There is a reason that the man can carry the Capitol District, where those who work in State Government work.

Although to my ignorant midwestern eyes, the two don't look much alike...
