Author and grandma killer Andrew Cuomo takes a brief pause from his COVID victory lap to remind us that 'COVID is NOT over'

Oh look, everybody. New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo has something to say about COVID. We’d better listen to him:

COVID is NOT over.

At best it’s half time.

You don’t call it a win at half time no matter the score.

Beg your pardon, Governor? We couldn’t hear you over the sound of you patting yourself on the back.

So, the other night when Cuomo said that COVID is a “metaphor,” he apparently meant “sports metaphor.”

Checked the score, and you're drafting first. https://t.co/v6Mjj1dXBV

And he’s damn proud of it, too.

you’ve already written a book celebrating your deadliest-in-the-nation COVID response https://t.co/6yjEFkazJD

So perhaps your book is a bit premature?

You write a book on your win at half time though? Ok

YOU HAVE BEEN ON A VICTORY TOUR AND LITERALLY WRITING A BOOK ABOUT YOUR SUCCESS!
