What a disgusting POS Cuomo is.
Blames everyone but himself for HIS decision to put infected people in nursing homes.
Cuomo brushes off criticism over nursing home deaths as 'shiny object'
New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo on Thursday again defended his administration’s now-scrapped nursing home policy that critics say contributed to thousands of coronavirus deaths, slamming the controversy as “a shiny object” and “pure politics.”
Cuomo’s comments came during an interview on New York’s WAMC-AM on Thursday. He was asked about the criticism and whether he acknowledged the policy was “on the wrong track.”
CUOMO DOWNPLAYS CALLS FOR FEDERAL PROBE INTO NURSING HOME CORONAVIRUS DEATHS: 'ASK PRESIDENT TRUMP'
“No,” the Democratic governor responded. “The nursing home is an unfortunate situation on two levels. Number 1, people in nursing homes died. The nursing home [controversy] is pure politics, the Republicans in Congress, they think there’s a vulnerability.”
He added: “The nursing home thing it’s just all politics.”
Cuomo went on to say the criticism is just a way to deflect criticism from the Trump administration’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
“They don’t want to talk about what the federal government did on COVID. So they want to attack the Democrats for nursing home deaths,” Cuomo said. “It’s the same M.O … just distract, you know, create a shiny object to take the attention off what they don’t want you to focus on.”
He added: “We had the worse case in the United States because the federal government had no idea what was going on. Where was the CDC? And where was the NIH? And where was everybody?”
