Audio has been leaked out of Governor Cuomo bullying a Democrat group that was endorsing him for Governor because their endorsement wasn’t good enough for him:
In a 2018 phone call w/ the leader of NY's Working Families Party, @NYGovCuomo takes umbrage at how they’re wording their endorsement of him:
“If you ever say, ‘Well he’s better than a Republican’ again, then I’m going to say, ‘You’re better than a child rapist’” [via the NYT] pic.twitter.com/ZTo5YpdjSl

Don’t just read the tweet, listen to the entire exchange. It’s amazing and shows just how unreasonable Cuomo can be.
The audio starts with Cuomo telling the New York Working Families Party “If you ever say, ‘Well he’s better than a Republican’ again, then I’m going to say, ‘You’re better than a child rapist'”
The Democrat group responded by explaining to Cuomo that they couldn’t get 100% agreement on his endorsement but that they were going to endorse him anyway, with the caveat that while they didn’t fully agree with him, they had far more issues with Republicans:
Our line is going to be that we have differences with you but our differences with Republicans are far greater. …We don’t have 100% agreement and quite frankly governor, we’re very comfortable with you saying the same thing. You probably think many of our positions – you don’t have to agree with us.
Cuomo responds to this by saying “I think you’re better than a child rapist, I just want you to know.”
What a damn schmuck. He’s getting this group’s endorsement over the other candidates but that’s still not good enough for him. He’s got to sound like Superman or else he insults and bullies them into submission.
Cuomo really is as bad as New Yorkers make him out to be. He’s completely lost New York, evidenced by the leaking of this old audio. New Yorkers are now piling on and it’s just a matter of time before he resigns. Or even better, gets impeached.
