Trump has opened himself up to valid criticisms on COVID, handing Dems a "he failed, we'd have done better" narrative. But they've made the choice to celebrate Cuomo & New York, where incompetence and deadly policies allowed the virus to run its course & kill tens of thousands...

Cuomo has shamelessly leaned into this ghoulish gaslighting, with Joe Biden clapping along. His speech last night was stunning in its brazenness. Democrats are elevating the single worst COVID response in America (including *ongoing cooking of books*) as their 'success' story...
