Party of one.
Thrice-elected Democratic ex-Gov. Andrew Cuomo is getting torched for refusing to name a single member of the party he admires.
Cuomo — who is running for mayor as an independent after losing the Democratic primary — was asked in a recent New York Times interview to cite three elected officials he looks up to or aligns with politically.
“Admire? None comes to mind,” he told the newspaper, according to the article published Tuesday. 4
Critics online pounced on Cuomo’s tepid response, considering the 67-year-old political scion has been a lifelong card-carrying Democrat.
“At least he didn’t name himself,” one user joked on Reddit .
Another user in the same thread added: “He still thinks he has a path to President and didn’t want to hype a competitor lol.”
