Clearly Cuomo has made the calculation that he will take over in the ruins left by Trump in 2024, Its the pattern America has been following. 8 Years of Republicans destroying the economy followed by 8 years of repair by Democrats.
I like Cuomo's personality, and competence level WAY better than Rump, but he is politically only a little better.
It would help America, but we need major fundamental changes that the more progressive wing might bring. I am also starting to believe we would do better to start some statewide confederations of the more successful states (blue) so that we can cooperate like the United States was intended to operate while making the fed and vote of the smaller less economically successful states less relevant.
It might start small, maybe grow out of the New York, New Jersey, Michigan, and Illinois alliance that is forming to assist each other with Covid. Likely it would include smaller New England states as well. Later California, Washington and Oregon could join together.
Naturally, eventually the Great Lakes states could join up with the New England alliance.
We could rid ourselves of the backward poverty stricken states of the South and West, without them we would soar.
I would hope this could happen peacefully as a natural transition of allowing alike minded people to band together, but the damage to the poor, uneducated states might force them to fight to keep us obliged to help them.
Florida and Georgia, Texas, North Carolina and Virginia might come along eventually, but I think the rest of the states, for the most part, might prefer to wallow in their own misery. We could offer aid to places like South Carolina, Alabama and Mississippi and asylum for the women and minorities.
