The amount of positive press he has received is just bizarre. My poor parents in NY believed he was some sort of savior for months
I'm a New Yorker. The reason why people liked his handling is because of how New Yorkers are. We want someone to be blunt as anything to us. We don't like subtext, we don't like "oh this is going to go away magically". Cuomo didn't do that. He said in no uncertain terms what was going on, what had happened and what they were trying to do. He wasn't perfect but I have enough family and friends left there that thought his approach is exactly what the state needed.

I liked his no-nonsense press-briefings, but writing a book-for-profit on all this during the crisis was pretty shameless and gross. (I'm not calling you out for defending him, mind you, just stating my opinion of the book stuff).
 
Biden had better get his ass in gear because Trump is getting all the publicity and in America publicity is everything.
Yes! An excellent, astute, reasoned point.

Biden should probably get on tv and say that covid is no big deal... or suggest people inject bleach... or maybe he should spend some time abusing deceased service members... or commit massive tax avoidance... or even just get on stage and dance to Macho Man...

Get that publicity, Joe!!

No, I agree. Writing a book is really classless. If literally every cent went to charity or research, ok. To make money off this isn't the best look regardless of how he was during the "wtf is going on" part of this pandemic.
