Channel 5 couldn't find any Cuomo supporters anywhere, so they went to an event for Cuomo supporters to interview them

They didn't even really support Cuomo. That kind of lethargy looks real bad for him. All he's got is money, and if it doesn't work for him, it'll dry up fast. They'll find someone it works better for

Oh yeah, they were obviously paid to hold the event for astroturfing.

Cuomo has been working with trump on this campaign, that's why their events and public comments are blurring together.

I just saw a clip this morning of Mike Johnson trying to blame Mamdani for shutting down the Federal government. Which is the type of logic only a trump supporter would fall for.

Silwa isnt the real Republican candidate, Cuomo is.

They're not trying to get Dems to vote for Cuomo, they're trying to get trump supporters.

Really highlights how there's no reason to support Cuomo.

They just said racist things about Mamdani and couldn't say anything good about Coumo.

Highlight quotes from the organizers:

We did this because we couldn't find anyone else who likes Cuomo

And:

Sure, no one wants a sexual abuser in office, but it's that or socialism!

But overall highlight is the protestor outside with a titty hanging out yelling about how Coumo ain't giving pizza to everyone, only people who will vote for him.

Quick edit:

And obviously the event was astro-turfing
