Is Cuomo a clown elected by idiots who killed tens of thousands of people for his decision to have nursing homes take in COVID patients?

Cuomo and DeBlasio made terrible decisions. But NY only accounts for 15% of US covid deaths. This is a nation-wide problem.

Why is the percentage important? The principle is the same - bad decision, preventable. If the 15% was everyone you cared about perhaps you would not see it that way.

I think maybe you are reading something into my statement that wasn't there, as people I do care about were in that 15%.The point is that this is a problem across the entire country - in red states and blue states, in states with Republican governors and with Democratic governors. America as a whole is experiencing this problem in a way no other country is, and I don't think it's Andrew Cuomo's fault.

Yes. Is he the same type of clown as Trump? No. But Cuomo's an idiot.

Cuomo is a center-left Democrat, how does that compare to Trump's alternative in 2016?

Really it sounds like tens or hundreds of thousands of people could die during a pandemic, regardless of what effort goes into paving a politician's way into office with censorship.
