Fortunately for Cuomo and the rest of the NY Dem Legislators the non-elite people who vote for them are not quite bright enough to figure that out, and drag the rest of the state down with them.
Gov. Cuomo wants to be president, as does mayor De Blasio. They both despise each other though.
And both played games with NYC budget items, trying to outmaneuver the other, using city services as poker chips in their schemes to acquire higher office.
While the road to the presidency is littered with the failed campaigns of NYC mayors, of the two, the communist De Blasio is the smoothest. He talks a good game and I fear him the most. Cuomo on the other hand maybe the worst public speaker in the history of public speaking.
Both have had their scandals and been under investigations in which both have skated by.
