“Because then we were in a position where we weren’t sure if what we were going to give to the Department of Justice, or what we give to you guys, what we start saying, was going to be used against us while we weren’t sure if there was going to be an investigation,” she said. “That played a very large role into this.”

Ok. To recap, Gov. Cuomo sticks elderly patients who have coronavirus into nursing homes, more elderly people catch it, many die and then they hide the information from the legislature, and it is Trump’s fault?

But there was no apology to the more than 13,000 elderly people who died in their state or to their families. There was only DeRosa attempting to not face the wrath of the Democrat legislators.

“So we do apologize,” the aide said. “I do understand the position that you were put in. I know that it is not fair. It was not our intention to put you in that political position with the Republicans.”

But that did not work with every Democrat on that call.

“I don’t have enough time today to explain all the reasons why I don’t give that any credit at all,” Assembly Health Committee Chairman Richard Gottfried said.
