73. How?

I'm trying to figure out here how you came to that conclusion & I can't.
I see it as quite the opposite. Cuomo would've gotten his clock cleaned bad. Like really bad. Why? Because we Democrats have standards & values. 2 sex pests going at it would've had millions of voters on our side staying home. Cuomo would have absolutely tanked outside of NY. It's also important to remember that Der Cheeto is popular among his base to the point it's a literal cult.

Cuomo has SWAGGER and toughness about him that is appealing Wanderlust988 Jun 2025 #24
Bass is not weak. Cuomo can get away with being that way becsuse he is a white man JI7 Jun 2025 #26
