The New York Post<\/a> posted an article today about a speech made by Andrew Cuomo at a bill-signing ceremony today.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

Gov. Andrew Cuomo stunned the audience at a bill-signing ceremony Wednesday by saying America \u201cwas never that great\u201d as he mocked President Trump\u2019s 2016 campaign slogan, \u201cMake America Great Again.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re not going to make America great again,\u201d Cuomo said while signing a bill dealing with human trafficking.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cIt was never that great. We have not reached greatness. We will reach greatness when every American is fully engaged.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

…\u201cWe will reach greatness when discrimination and stereotyping against women \u2026 is gone. And every woman\u2019s full potential is realized and unleashed, and every woman is making her full contribution \u2026 we have not yet fully liberated the women in this country, and we will, and New York will lead the way.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

I beg to differ. Let’s use Mario Cuomo as an example. His parents owned a store in South Jamaica, Queens<\/a>, in New York City. He graduated from St. John’s University<\/a> and St. John’s University School of Law<\/a>, later becoming Governor of New York. A son of Italian immigrants who became governor of one of the largest states in our nation. I think that’s pretty great. Andrew was also able to get a good education and follow in his father’s footsteps. Whether or not you agree with his politics, Mario Cuomo is an example of a child of immigrants who was able to get an education and prosper. That is what makes America great. Andrew Cuomo needs to look at his own family history before he claims that America is not great. There are very few countries where what his family accomplished would be possible.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
