I am referring, of course, to Andrew Cuomo, whose response to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s victory in the primary is, “And I would’ve gotten away with it if it weren’t for those meddling kids.”
OK, he didn’t ACTUALLY say that, but tell me that this does not sound very similar:
In his own remarks to reporters, Mr. Cuomo said Ms. Ocasio-Cortez “ran a very good campaign” that connected with people in her district, particularly “the fear and the anger that is in the minority community.”
Of course, this really isn’t true, Ocasio-Cortez actually performed better in the non-Hispanic precincts, but Cuomo wants to minimize her legitimacy, and to his mind, that involves making her victory the result of minority votes, which, come to think of it, is pretty f%$#ing racist.
