Mayor De Blasio is at heart a coward and a push-over

Who hides behind a patina of smugness. Governor Cuomo took him to the woodshed - from Washington Examiner:

'Did not do their job': Andrew Cuomo blasts Bill de Blasio for police presence
New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo ridiculed Mayor Bill de Blasio for the rioting and destruction that took place in New York City.

Cuomo's condemnation of the New York City mayor came Tuesday, a day after rioters looted shops and police officers were attacked amid the protests, some of which have turned violent, over the death of George Floyd.

“The NYPD and the mayor did not do their job last night. I believe that. Second, you have 38,000 NYPD people," Cuomo stated. "It is the largest police department in the United States of America — use 38,000 people and protect property. Use the police, protect property, and people. Look at the videos; it was a disgrace."

He also noted that “technically, a governor could remove a mayor” but said he didn't intend on using that power.

Anyone could have done a better job of running New York City in the last six months. He may be glib with a sound-bite but he is not a leader by any stretch of the imagination. The citizens of New York City deserve better.
