    And how many political posts by you am I going to find if I do a search? Hmmm.

    IF you going to criticize someone, 'tis better to:

    1. Not do it if you are guilty of same, or
    2. Be humble enough to admit you do the same as you are levying the criticism to another.

    And he did, just like that? WoW... what a weakling...

    Everybody and his uncle called for him to step down except for Biden but he's excused, he did not know what was going on.

    He has a criminal case now against him and he would have been fully impeach by his own party. He should have stepped down months again, especially after all the elderly he murdered, but it took a criminal accusation of sexual harassment to get him to resign. That's not decent.... that's incredulous!

    The longer he’s there the longer people have to defend him. And the allegations are far more substantial than most of the made up **** tossed against Trumps wall, since it won’t take long for people to start finger pointing.

    The walls just finally closed in and he accepted reality. That's not "decency". "Decency" would have been not sexually harassing women in the first place.

    I said he had the decency to step down. Now that you mention it, he also had the decency to accept reality.

    Yep. You have to be Trump to get away with that kind of behavior. It takes a special kind of scumbag.

    When I see Cuomo resign, I am so proud to be a Democrat.

    Cuomo would have been a Republican, a horde of supporters would have cried conspiracy.

    He would have gotten a pass like Trump and Gaetz.

    LOL - One post in and Lefties deflect to Trump. It's a reflex. :lol:

    PS. Cuomo should have resigned a LONG time ago after he killed 15,000 nursing home residents and then lied about it, but Dems gave Cuomo a mulligan...

    Bringing up Obama on every post, good luck. I discuss the topic not try to relate the topic to past presidential failures to that have zero to do with the topic. I'm beginning to think there are three or four that are russian or chinese bots, never on topic always bringing up past divisions designed to further separate Americans politically.

    I would say that republicans are more tolerant when it comes to politics. I don't know why. They would do better with more aggression.

    Can't say I'm happy about this, sounds strange coming from a solid right-winger like me.

    Naturally, I probably disagreed with every political utterance that Cuomo ever made, but he had GUTS and he didn't put up with any bullshit from anybody!

    So how was he destroyed? Was it for getting all those old people killed in nursing homes? No... busting him for that would have been the right thing to do (which rarely occurs to hyperliberal Democrats).

    Instead, they destroy him over feeling up some "T & A", which is just tantamount to being Hitler to the other-worldly 'woke' crowd. :roflol:

    This is a cuomo thread. Can’t go 2 seconds without thinking of Donald trump?
    Sad!
    By the way, how much rent are you charging Trump a month to live in your head?
    He’s pretty rich, I suggest you charge him 20k a month. Letting him live there for free is bad economics

    So, other than the thousands of folks he condemned, in your mind, he did fine. Got it. It must suck being one of his ardent supporters. His shame being that he assaulted women, not killed the elderly. And yet, he did kill the elderly. And for that, the media love him. Still.

    Agreed, nobody knew anything about the virus at the time but it was common knowledge that old folks were dropping like flies to the original strains of the virus, so the decision to move them into faculty homes was a very curious one at the very least to malicious at worse.

    If Dems had given him a Mulligan, he wouldn't have resigned.

    It seems that, with the exception of Clinton, Dems hold their degenerates accountable. Spitzer, Cuomo, Edwards, Franken etc. come to mind.

    On the other hand, the GOP likes their degenerates and circles the wagon, for example Sanford, Gingrich, Gaetz, MTG, and last but not least, Trump.
