1. He's just trying to hurt blue state, NY, that was....

smart enough not to vote for his lying, misogynistic, bigoted, narcissistic ass. He probably thought that since he owns buildings in NYC the state owed him some sort of fealty.

Anyway, once again he's lying and full of hooey. According to the article:


"...unemployment in the state fell from 8.4 percent in December 2010 to 4.5 percent in June, and that the state has gained nearly 1 million jobs since Cuomo took office in January 2011."

“We deal in facts — not fake news," Azzopardi said. "The facts are unemployment has been cut nearly in half and private sector jobs are at an all-time high in New York — a change deeply felt in Buffalo and across Western New York."


In very northern (and rather red) NY it's still not good but it IS getting better IF you want to work and IF you're willing to expand your options and/or educational base, something I'm finding quite a few way up here simply aren't willing to do.

Oh and if you give up your house and move to get jobs that don't even exist yet just because Trump tells you to do so, you're a sucker and a damn ignorant fool.
