Comedian Bill Maher stated on his podcast that he thinks former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo's bid for NYC mayor is severely compromised due to repercussions from the COVID-19 nursing home scandal. Cuomo faced serious allegations regarding the underreporting of nursing home deaths following a directive allowing COVID-positive patients into these facilities. Maher, while acknowledging Cuomo's past appearances on his show, emphasizes that both the New York Times and Post criticizing Cuomo signals deep political trouble for his campaign, despite Chris Cuomo's differing views on the issue's impact.
I don't think he's going to get past the nursing home thing... When the Times and the Post are both on the same page, it's - you know.
I think he's got a lot of pressure against him within that party, and they're going to have to make a decision whether they want to be in power or they want to police their own set of beliefs within their party.
