Former Gov Andrew Cuomo Wants to Run for Mayor of New York

I see Anthony Weiner all over again....

Please no

Where’s that nice Kathryn Garcia when you need her?

[QUOTE] Where’s that nice Kathryn Garcia when you need her?

Wherever she is, she better stay there. If she runs against Cuomo, she’ll be a two-time loser.

I can’t stand the guy, but if he runs he will have a decent chance.

The current mayor isn’t impressing and the previous one was a disaster.

Before Cuomo’s issues interfered, he was generally viewed positively as a governor.

Biden and Adams have broken up

Cuomo? Might as week run Giuliani.

I worked at a restaurant that he visited 20 years ago. He threw a shit fit when the waiter actually presented the check. His party was comped ($2,000 IIRC).

He’s an entitled bully-cunt, just like his asshole brother.

He would do a good job, better than the other idiots. He can name whatever he wants after his dad if he can clean up the streets.

R7 not at all surprised. I was a huge fan until I had an actual interaction with him. Now I think he’s a despicable POS.

Randomly linking a thread.

I think Manhattanites would be very skeptical of Cuomo, who played Republicans and Democrats against each other so he could control both parties. Then there is the little matter of sexual harassment claims.

Brooklyn is probably out for him too. Can’t count on the other boroughs though.

I can’t stand him either but name recognition is powerful on Election Day. New Yorkers, despite the rhetoric, have proven themselves time and time again to be pretty unsophisticated voters.

Quelle surprise…anus.

He’s have to tone down the arrogance and present as matured. But he has a shot.

He would do well in Queens and SI Obviously no progressive or young voters would support him. Don’t assume Adams is done. He’s slick.

At this point I'd vote for Cynthia Nixon if she ran against Adams.

I’m in favor of literally anyone but Adams.

I hear George Santos will be looking for a job soon VOTN.

Breaking News: Eric Adams accused of 1993 sexual assault

I guess it's actual clinical or pathological narcissism but why do these people with these skeleton run? These days, it's impossible to run and keep anything quiet (I hope... I don't want to imagine what's being kept quiet, otherwise, when you consider what gets out there...) Or is it now that a scandal is just table stakes, deny (even when everybody knows you're lying or thinks you're lying) and then brazen it out to run again because you're just so special, even though it's name rec gets you elected? One fucked up mess, the modern age.

Eric Adams is what happens when you elect a politician just because they’re…

Right, because none of this ever happens to white politicians.

Uh oh, Cuomo hit with new sexual assault charges

What we all really want to know is, does Andrew have pierced nipples.

I don’t recall New York ever having a female mayor. Perhaps it’s time. Hillary? Cynthia Nixon? Letitia James?

Beanie!

Can you give a vagueish description, Elderlez?

See the link at my response 11 which links to yet another thread.

If he ran, I'd vote for him. I just want competence at this point.

Former Gov Andrew Cuomo lacks imagination.

Thanks r30/ElderLez - wow, that's some major league malfeasance. I wasn't expecting something that big. Surreal he's considering a run.

I don't think any of the Cuomos are fettered by self-awareness, R33.

His daughter just got engaged

R8- Are you referring to FREDO?

I'd vote for Cuomo.

A bad Democrat is still better than any Republican.

Eric Adams’ approval rating drops to 28%

Miss me, bishes?

Taylor Swift for mayor.

Looks like it’s Cuomo Time.

[quote]Biden and Adams have broken up

Yes, because Adams complained about the immigrants, who have caused a $12 BILLION dollar deficit for NYC. He said it will be Says it will be the end of New York City.

Melania for Mayor!

Hasn't he killed enough people already?

He’s been laying the groundwork for months now

Nope

Apparently he won’t run unless Adams steps down

Viciously face slap him

Cuomo has it in the bag at this point. Who’s going to stop him?

Eric Adams, Anthony Weiner, Andrew Cuomo...

...do you have to be really ugly to want to be mayor iof nYC?

Mayor Pete! Lady Chasten, la reina of the Neo Swans!

[quote] His party was comped ($2,000 IIRC).

I wonder by whom?

YASSS! The NYC Mayor's office is desperately in need of MORE CORRUPTION!

It sure helps.

How was Cuomo corrupt, R53?

I hope he does.But he has to show some humility and take responsibility for his arrogance. He can’t be the same douche he was as Governor.

That should be easy for him.

If New Yorkers elect this sexual predator then they get what they deserve. Why would you want a leader that is politicking backwards. He should be in 28’ presidential and senate conversations not NYC’s mayoral race.

How about some new blood?

That’s all we need, exchanging one crooked demagogue for another,

SAY NO TO THE CUOMO!

R3 Kathryn Garcia (nee McIver) is now Director of State Operations for the state of New York, whatever that means.

R27, Letiticia James is our sister, right?

Andrew was nicknamed "The Prince of Darkness" for cause.

Fuck the racist asshole at R23 and the two W/Ws you gave yourself.

NYTimes: Cuomo’s Coming

New York Democrats bracing for the return of Cuomo

Isn't he basically a DINO? Just elect a Republican in that case.

He is 66. Time to stay retired.

He’s a true fucking old school Democrat, R66. My kind of Dem. Why the hell would you call him a DINO? Maybe you’re the one with questionable Democratic credentials.

Fuck him. He's a cunt.

He undercut the Democratic Party in NYS R68.

I may not like how he conducts himself, R70, but there is nothing in terms of his policy positions which would make me call him a Republican pretending to be a Democrat. That’s the talk of a leftist who thinks people like Barack Obama, Joe Biden and the Clintons aren’t “real” Democrats. That’s where I disagree.

He put Republicans in control of the State Senate even they were in the minority.

It's almost like scandals are a job requirement for the NYC mayor's office.

Looks like I spoke too soon earlier in saying that nobody could stop Cuomo. There is one challenger who could defeat him: Tish James.
