    Replying to @atrupar
    Trump pushes a false equivalency: "People went to the polls & voted during World War 1. They went to the polls & voted during World War 2. We can safely go to the polls & vote during Covid-19." (Soldiers during those wars voted by mail.)

    Gov Cuomo and New Yorkers earn high praise from Dr Fauci --> Keep it up, NY! Fauci holds up New York as model for fighting coronavirus — ‘They did it correctly’

    The first time Trump crawls out from under the covers he focuses on Gov Cuomo I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: Andrew Cuomo lives in Trump’s head, rent free

    Somewhere last night in New York City, a single mother and her children slept at a homeless shelter because you, assemblyman @ZohranKMamdani are occupying her rent controlled apartment. You grew up rich and married an even wealthier woman. You’ve had weddings on 3 continents.
