WTF is the Governor of NY in PR for?
During a press brief in Puerto Rico Monday, New York Governor Andrew Cuomo (D) compared the current administration’s efforts to curb illegal immigration to Islamic Jihad.
“They are on a Jihad to deport as many people as they can who they believe are not in the United States legally,” Cuomo said.
On Tuesday, the Muslim DEMOCRAT Club of New York’s board secretary, Sadaf Mehdi issued a statement requesting an apology from Cuomo for his misuse of the word jihad.
“Governor Cuomo’s comparison of it to a ‘jihad’ only perpetuates the Islamophobic trope that acts of violence are somehow a Muslim invention,” the statement said.
