I've been calling him Americas Governor, not to downplay any of the other govs out there getting shit done. I just enjoy taking rudy's wannabe title and applying it to somebody actually getting something real done.

They say Trump has been trying to emulate these to boost his image. They say this, but I can't tell the difference in Trump's pressers.

conversation when he talked about how much money he's lost being President. That should resonate bigly with people who have lost their jobs, have no savings, can't pay the rent, won't be able to buy food. He knows what it's like, look at how much he's suffered.

I was wondering if it was even being shown to them - surprised their dear leader would even allow such a "hoax" - I finally found the channel and boy was I shocked when I clicked it on and it was being aired...

Funny story though: watching cable news late one night I couldn't sleep, there was some crisis going on and I wondered if they were even covering it over there on fux, so I find the channel turn it on and of course they were not. I turn to my hubby and remark in disgust - our country is in peril and all they can talk about is some stupid storm in the Atlantic - and he replies "that's because you are watching the weather channel". I must have been really tired...

him.

For example, Cuomo says NY is going to try some of the drugs and treatments that have some anecdotal evidence they might work. He is also talking about the epidemiologist who has suggested that perhaps the younger people should go back to work, etc.

When trump says that, everyone feels like it's a foolish idea.

When Cuomo says it, one feels like he has at least talked to experts, studied the matter, and made a reasonable decision with the facts available. More importantly, he'll abandon something the moment there is evidence it's not working.

I'm glad the states like NT are doing there thing.

at the same time, we see our whiny a&& and constantly complaining so called president?

Such a contrast and it will not be forgotten by the voters and others.

The blue state governors with the greatest issues have been leading for weeks in the vacuum created by tRump.

Thank you, Governor Cuomo, Governor Pritzker, Governor Newsom, Governor Inslee.
