Gov. Andrew Cuomo blames everyone but himself for the thousands of COVID-related fatalities in New York these past several months. A heartbreaking number of those deaths occurred in nursing homes. We've documented the nursing home tragedy time and again here at Townhall, and how Cuomo's March 25 mandate likely played a significant factor in it. On that day, Cuomo ordered facilities to accept COVID patients if they had the resources to do so. For many family members who lost loved ones in New York elder care, it's a no-brainer that Cuomo's dangerous order killed.

But he and his administration deny it and have chosen to point fingers at President Trump, nursing home staffers or family members that caused the high rate of infections, not the mandate.

And now he's come full circle in blaming President Trump.

"I hold Donald Trump responsible for every death in New York from COVID," Cuomo said at his Tuesday press conference in Albany. "Because Trump lied. He lied. And in combination with his lies, he was incompetent. It was his lie that said this was nothing to worry about. Trump was patient zero in the United States."-- excerpt, rest at link above --

"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."

So, New York City Health Commisioner Dr. Oxiris Barbot didn't advise, "We are encouraging New Yorkers to go about their everyday lives and suggest practicing everyday precautions that we do through the flu season," and, "We are very clear: We wish New Yorkers a Happy Lunar New Year and we encourage people to spend time with their families and go about their celebration" on January 26th? https://www.nytimes.com/2020/01/27/nyreg...oronavirus.html

NYC Health Commissioner Dave A. Chokshi didn't Tweet to New Yorkers, "As we gear up to celebrate the #LunarNewYear in NYC,... there is no reason for anyone to change their holiday plans, avoid the subway, or certain parts of the city because of #coronavirus on February 2nd? https://twitter.com/NYCHealthCommr/statu...043155852537863

NYC Health Commisioner Dr. Oxiris Barbot didn't advise, "So we�re telling New Yorkers, go about your lives, take the subway, go out, enjoy life, but practice everyday precautions" on February 7th? https://news.grabien.com/story-flashback...orkers-gather-p

NYC Health Commissioner Oxiris Barbot didn't advise New Yorkers, "I want to remind everyone to enjoy the (Lunar New Year) parade and not change any plans due to misinformation spreading about #coronavirus." on February 9th? https://twitter.com/NYCHealthCommr/statu...508570646269954

NYC Health Commisioner Dr. Oxiris Barbot didn't advise "So, there's no indication that being in a car, being in the subways with someone who's potentially sick is a risk factor ..." on March 4th? https://www1.nyc.gov/office-of-the-mayor...19-preparedness

City of New York Mayor de Blasio didn't encourage residents to "get out on the town" on March 5th? https://twitter.com/BilldeBlasio/status/1234648718714036229

They didn't do all this in the context of Trump starting the screening of arriving China passengers at JFK on January 17th and shutting down China travel on February 2nd (after January 31 announcement)? How stupid does Cuomo think people are?!
