I was just thinking about that mandate. Cuomo would have said it was not the mayor’s wheelhouse, and would have pushed back the date by a few weeks. What a relief that pettiness is over.

Not. Cuomo is one of the strongest proponents of mandated vaccinations.

Well, Cuomo was a proponent of smacking down deBlasio at every opportunity, just to show he was boss, even if he agreed with the proposal. His delaying the shut down in NYC likely cost thousands of lives.

Grace, do you live in NYC (and understand our situation...we are 5 generation NYCers)? Cuomo asserted himself to reign in our Mayor who insisted on closing all bridges and tunnels into NYC and the ensuing disaster. He certainly did not agree with the Mayor's proposal (and saying he did and spitefully disagreed to show off his power is false). Please stick to factual comments about something we here know to be different.
