Cuomo is a morally-bankrupt man. But he was an effective governor in many respects.

No, he was clearly always a corporate shill his entire time as governor. He tried to get NYC to pay for half the subway without giving us increased power of how it's run [1].

Then he lied about the COVID numbers so he could write a shitty book about how great of a governor he was around that time. That seems decidedly ineffective to me, unless the goal was to kill people I guess. He sucked, we're good to be rid of him.

He sucked. He probably still does.

[1] If the city actually ran the MTA I suspect it would be competent.
