That's fine. He's a creepy old weirdo. I get it. I'm with you on all that. But what he did in the nursing home fiasco was far more

egregious as a matter of public conduct and far more damaging to the Democrat party and brand and the media too. That's a mega

scandal. Not not a thing that can be apologized for. Not a thing that you can just wave aside with a hand and a few tears and say,

oh, the better other times I promise. That's not the way this works. We need to continue to hammer home the point here that Cuomo had people on his staff

intentionally change numbers about deaths during a pandemic. This would be like a general lying about troops killed in battle so he could keep his job.

That's how serious this is. You have to understand the degree to which this change thinking and this mattered at this period in time of

extremely important and tense decision making. Maybe people would have thought differently about, oh, I don't know the great

parenting declaration about focus protection for seniors. If they had known just how egregious the government misconduct, how awful the decision making was

in New York. Remember, New York and New Jersey number number two and number one respectively for COVID deaths per 100,000 people in the United States, both very deep blue Democrat states. Let's remember that.

And yet somehow Cuomo was a hero. He was second only to Fauci to whom I can only say he needs to go Fauci himself.

Second only to Fauci in terms of the hero worship from the media. What the heck was this all about? How did this even happen?

There's so much going on here. First of all, you have the fact that if you're a Democrat, you can get away with things that you would never be able to.

If this were a Republican, imagine this were Christy known. Imagine this were Rhonda Santas. If Rhonda Santas hid 15,000 nursing homes

and deaths by undercounting it by 50% so whatever they said, it was roughly you know, 75 100 let's say something along that along those lines.

If he said that it was 7500 it was really 15,000 people would be demanding not only he resigned and when I say people, I mean universal.

There would be universal nationwide condemnation in the media. It would be the top story. And there's just this kind of muted half-hearted

report Taj on it from the Democrat outlets. You know, yeah, it looks like maybe a crazy thing happened, man. Cuomo was undercounting nursing home deaths by, I don't know, like 50% or something.

Wow. They really don't math so good over in the Cuomo office. Do they? Yeah, tough to do addition and subtraction.

This mattered immensely. And if this were a ronda, Santis, it would be the number one news story. I mean, you know, you remember when during the Bush administration there was that misconduct in Abu Ghraib.

And that was on the front page of the newspaper day after day after day after day. And I remember being a pretty pretty young guy at the time and saying, wow, so this is how you make a story really stick.

This is how you really tear down an administration with a story. I mean, George Bush wasn't giving that order, but Abu Ghraib was on the front page of the newspaper of the New York Times, for example, I want to say 20 out of 30 days or something like that. It was a long time ago, but it was so much coverage of just saturation, saturation coverage.
