Question - Do you still think Cuomo did a good job with his COVID actions (I'm just curious)?

He was right? He was the leader if the anti mitigation movement? Before shots were readily available. Come on man. Vaccines were not even an option for what a year during the pandemic and he was telling people to go live your lives as hundreds of thousands were dying. Now he is some sort of safety monitor in your eyes? Lol

As far as Cuomo goes I think he was at least giving the right advice early on as far as mitigation goes. Fudging numbers about deaths in nursing homes was ignorant, and selfish and he was obviously trying to make things look better in his state , a state that is a little more of a congested area than Florida and was a much bigger challenge than Florida- but no he should not have fudged the numbers. Honesty is obviously the best policy. It did not kill people like the anti mitigation train did though. But it was stupid none the less. All i know is when the pandemic was raging out of control and there was no vaccine you had DeSantis telling people nothing to see here and Cuomo telling people to mask up, stay home, socially distance etc. Doesn’t mean I think Cuomo is the beacon of honesty but DeSantis was most certainly downplaying the virus like his leader was and to me that is by far worse than trying to fudge numbers.
