ALBANY — Gov. Cuomo on Monday described Donald Trump as a gift from God whose “imploding” campaign has put the House of Representatives in play for Democrats.
Speaking at a fund-raiser for House Democrats, Cuomo said the prospect of a Democratic takeover is no longer a long shot thanks to Trump’s bizarre campaign and the damage he is doing to GOP candidates.
“The good Lord gave us a moment with this Donald Trump,” Cuomo said at the event, which also featured House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi. “He really, really did.”
Cuomo said Democratic candidates must press their GOP opponents to either embrace Trump or run from him.
“I believe the damage that this Mr. Trump is doing is far greater than people appreciate,” Cuomo said. “He has hit a base level of repugnancy that supersedes philosophy. . . . It is insulting to any decent person.”
