EP 151: Andrew Cuomo Makes His Case – The Stakes for New York City
In the aftermath of the worst mass shooting in NYC in 25 years, we speak with NYC mayoral candidate Andrew Cuomo as new details emerge about the attack and the suspect. The former NY governor discusses the state of gun violence, what he thinks needs to be done about assault weapons at the federal level, and how ‘Mayor Cuomo’ would handle public safety and the NYPD differently.
We dig into the NYC mayoral race, his loss to Zohran Mamdani in the primary, what he learned, and why he’s staying in the race as an independent. He weighs in on Mamdani’s proposals, why he thinks Mayor Eric Adams should drop out, the rise of “democratic socialism,” President Trump, the migrant crisis, antisemitism and what’s at stake for New York City in November.
We also revisit his record as governor, including the landmark NY SAFE Act counteracting gun violence, and his economic and infrastructure initiatives as he tells us why he thinks it's inaccurate to say ‘blue states’ can’t get things done. He also addresses Mo News community questions about his controversies, including about his COVID policies, and the sexual misconduct allegations that led to his resignation from governor.
