Former Gov. Andrew Cuomo said Saturday he’ll pack his bags and flee to Florida if he loses the NYC mayoral race to socialist Zohran Mamdani.
“It’s all or nothing. We either win or even I will move to Florida. God forbid!” Cuomo told business leaders and other honchos at a Hamptons breakfast hosted by supermarket mogul John Catsimatidis.
hey i want to be your mayor but ill just fuken leave the whole state if that other guy wins
What a dedicated and loyal representative of the people!
I love this place so much, except if I lose then I hate it
That would be a win-win for New York.
And a drop in the bucket for Florida.
That mentality is exactly what makes him so unfit for the job
Good election propaganda too. “If my opponent loses, he has so little faith in NYC that he’ll leave” or somethjng
Good get the fuck out
Really? The most Republican, conservative, shit-holeiest state of them all? Fine, go be with your true people.
I’m Zohran Mamdani and I approve this message.
Don’t threaten me with a good time
“I would rather a conservative hellhole like Florida than a state that gives mild concessions to the people”…I’m sure that resonates with new Yorkers.
It may explain why some New Yorkers retire to the South.
Is this a promise? Can we hold him to it? Not that Florida wants him either…
I hereby sign the executive order that the US shall have a “Good times threat act”
whereby any politician threatening it’s majority voters with a good time if their candidate gets elected,
will face criminal charges if the politician in question does not follow through his or her threat.If you are going to prosecute politicians for not following through on promises, you are going to have an awful lot of work ahead of you…
I did not expect him to give Mamdani an endorsement at all, much less this soon after losing the primary.
Stop, stop. I can only be so excited.
Someone should put in a law that if a politician is going to threaten to move somewhere if X happens,
and X happens, then by law s/he is exiled to that place.whats with these people and thinking we care if they leave?
like wtf does this person even add to your life in ny?
…sounds like he’s campaigning for even more folks to vote for mamdani…
Florida can have him
People reading it like a contingency plan, but the “God forbid” makes me read it like Florida is the worst place in the world to Cuomo and he’s using it as hyperbole for how bad NYC will become. I don’t know if he meant it that way, of course, but I like the idea of using Florida as my benchmark insult.
That said, I totally agree that when Mamdami wins, Cuomo should be exiled to Florida as punishment-- he belongs there with all the other sex pests.
