Many of his allies said there would be no real point in carrying on if he treated the general election like the primary. People who worked on his campaign, who insisted on anonymity for fear of retribution, used words like “entitled,” “arrogant” and “aloof” to describe Cuomo’s attitude.
That's pretty much the entire D old guard. I have seen no end of scolding from Ds accusing me of saying "if you criticized Cuomo you must be saying he's as bad as Trump, and that's obviously not true so you are evil for not backing him." It's been an insane few days.
One of the reasons the D party is in the wilderness is because of party elites who have treated key voter blocks with entitlement for multiple election cycles, and instead of offering the a reason to vote D, have told them "if you don't vote against the GOP, you're responsible for everything bad."
even his allies are like “yeah the guys a real piece of shit”
Haha - who would have thought Cuomo would blame himself? He IS arrogant- he’s have to be to run for office after all the sexual harassment complaints against him. What a d..k. 🍆
So why did they work on his campaign?
From what I've heard he paid
He paid his volunteers by promising not to grope them.
They go in for ideological reasons, then later discover the truth.
So much baggage. So little time to unload .
According to reports, Cuomo will stay on NYC mayor’s ballot after conceding Democratic primary to Mamdani
that bit at the end about him treating david paterson as a lackey— it should be noted (but isn't in the article) that paterson was the first black governor of new york
He seemed slow and halting in his thinking and speaking, made me wonder about cognitive decline
Entitled old white guys never blame themselves
He would have made for a great Dem Presidential nominee who lose ignominiously in an electoral blowout.
He is a arrogant slug and the fact that people are afraid of his retaliation just proves he is a horrible human.
