I don't like Andrew Cuomo...

51. My husband and I will and so will a lot of NY residents because we remember

Just thinking back to what things were like here a year ago. It was hell on earth. My husband would come home from his shift physically and emotionally exhausted, from the number of so many people dying, it was hard to keep up, and they were running out of PPE. There was no direction from the federal government, including finding the necessary PPE and ventilators that were so desperately needed, that was left up to the states. Cuomo was calm, reassuring, intelligent, well informed. He explained to New York just what we had to do bring this under control, and people trusted and listened. This saved a lot of lives. He wasn't afraid to wear a mask and encouraged it. He had a lot on his plate and he handled it extremely well. People all over the country started listening to his press conferences and they were paying attention too. He brought other governors together to try and plan what they could do to get through this crisis, with little federal help. The alternative was Trump, how this wasn't "serious", how everyone would be back in church by Easter, how wearing a mask, was something he would never do and how it took away your freedom and they should rebel, how great he was he was, how it was all lies, and to go drink bleach. For the actions Cuomo took during this pandemic I will always be grateful.

Now I know these women have a right to be heard, even though I question their accusations. There are a lot of republicans that would love to see Cuomo gone as well as some Democrats on their own power trip. But I hope this Democratic party doesn't do what they did to Franken, and urge him to resign quickly, with no support and not allowing him a chance to be heard.
