New York Governor Andrew Cuomo launched a blistering attack on President Donald Trump's response to the coronavirus crisis, accusing him of "passing the buck" to the states and favouring big business over communities hardest hit.
"We built more beds than we needed," Mr Cuomo said, pointing to initial federal projections on the impact of the virus which predicted that as many as 2.2 million people could die. Governor Cuomo should spend more time "doing" and less time "complaining". Get out there and get the job done. Stop talking!

I know he doesn't want to run for president but he seems to be the only one talking sense
Hunger Games Politics! He wants the power(as per constitution) but none of the responsibility yet he wants the federal gov to have zero power & all the responsibility. If he decides to keep his state shut down how can he expect other states to foot the bill.
I could listen to Cuomo all day. He has no fear. HAIL Cuomo
Cuomo should run as vp fro Biden
Cuomo and de Blasio are incompetent...full stop...

donald trump only cares about money thats it
alot of drama with american leaders. set a good example and stop getting hyper
PPE is the responsibility of individual states. The federal gov supply emergency backup (which they've done) Cuomo, like every other governor, were caught with their pants down
