This Sums Up How Politics Works -- And Why Most Politicians Are Crud

I, like so many others, wanted to like Andrew Cuomo. At a time when we were facing the greatest catastrophe of our lifetime, he stepped up and showed leadership.? We didn’t get it with Bush when we attacked on 9/11.? We didn’t get it with Obama.? And though Trump proved that his business acumen was? advantageous in? regard to? running government,? he was? ill-prepared in the PR skills necessary to stabilize a panicked populace.???

Cuomo was the man.??

Unfortunately, it turned out he also made a monstrously inept mistake resulting in the death of thousands of seniors and then in a corrupt and cowardly effort to maintain his superstar status he attempted to cover it up. And oh yeah, he’s also a sexual predator.?

Okay, fine.?

Now at any other time in history this would be the end of someone’s political career. But no more!? Accomplishment, or lack thereof, and character, or lack thereof,? is irrelevant.? It’s all about celebrity.? Remember the commercial from the 80’s where the actor says, “I’m not a doctor, but I play one on TV”? As if pretending to be a doctor was good enough to give medical advice? ? Well, that’s what we have now in real life. These people aren’t real leaders. They just pretend to be on TV.?

So Cuomo will surely run for re-election and will most surely win.? But he’s stacking the deck, just in case. He just announced an executive order declaring gun violence is a National Emergency. And in other breaking news, bears shit in the woods.?

Now there’s no need to get into the gun debate but? what makes this so chock full of hilarity is that it was Cuomo who signed the no bail law which allowed violent criminals to be set free --? at which point they set out to commit more crimes. With guns.? And yet,? the woke infested newsations are exclaiming what a magnificent act of leadership he is showing.??

This is a guy who couldn’t find his own butthole with two tries but will get applause for the effort.?

And there you have it.? People want their heroes. And at a time when all there is to choose from are fools, phoneys and frauds, they’ll take what they can get.?

Just keep in mind... whenever you do that, you get what you deserve.?
