    Andrew Cuomo seen as possible White House candidate by some Democrats

    https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/5165904-cuomo-2028-presidential/

    excerpt:

    Former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) is days away from potentially entering the New York City mayor’s race.

    But even before Cuomo is set to make that announcement, some Democrats are already tossing around his name for a bigger race: the 2028 presidential campaign.

    Since their loss in November, Democrats have been anxious to find a voice not only to lead them out of the wilderness but also to stand up to President Trump and the slew of actions he’s taken in his second term.

    Cuomo, with his brash, in-your-face style, they say, could shape up to be a dark horse candidate in what is set to be a wide-open race.

    In many ways, they say, it would be reminiscent of spring 2020, when Cuomo faced off with Trump during the height of the COVID-19 lockdown, when both men lobbed frequent barbs at each other.

    “If Andrew Cuomo becomes mayor of New York, he could very well be Trump’s chief antagonist starting in 2026, which could give Democrats a voice to rally around, however imperfect a messenger he may be,” said Democratic strategist Jamal Simmons.

    Where is the article did it list which Democrat insiders want Cuomo to run?

    There are a lot of people and a lot of voices - but I highly doubt that there are many democratic decision makers that want Cuomo.

    It does provide convenient cover for Trump though - and supporting Trump.

    Then again it is 2025, so who knows... it wasn't that long ago that a lot of Republicans said that they would never support Trump and they do now, so I am sure that there are democrats that would slurp at the Cuomo teat if they felt he could win.

    Does the article actually say Democrats want Cuomo to run?

    Does anyone outside of Republican trolls actually feel any need to pretend there is substance here?

    So Republicans aren't promoting AOC, Jasmine Crockett or members the Squad for the 2028 Democratic nomination anymore? Mario doesn't really invoke enough passion to get the MAGA faithful up off the couch in a non-Trump election.
