Cuomo and Trump Exchange Barbs

Gov. Andrew Cuomo said at his daily briefing that New York could not fully reopen its economy without more widespread testing, which could not be done “without federal help,” the New York Times reports.

He explained that the federal government was “passing the buck without passing the bucks.”

Before the briefing was over, President Trump tweeted: “Governor Cuomo should spend more time ‘doing’ and less time ‘complaining’. Get out there and get the job done. Stop talking!”

Which allowed Cuomo to respond: “First of all, if he’s sitting home watching TV, maybe he should get up and go to work, right? Second, let’s keep emotion and politics out of this, and personal ego if we can. Because this is about the people.”
