Chris Cuomo Lauds Big Brother Andrew in a Congratulatory Farewell as ‘Best Politician in the Country’

‘I hope you are able to appreciate what you did in your state’

EXCERPT:

C. CUOMO: “But I want you to know that June is a big month for us, right? We've got mom and pop's anniversary on the 5th, we've got pop's birthday on the 15th. This is what he always wanted. He was proud when you became governor, because of what he knew you would do. Remember that whole talk he gave us about, 'I'm not proud, I don't believe in pride, pride is deadly sin,' all that. What he wanted to see is what you do with the opportunity. And everything that he ever said mattered to him about public service, is what you demonstrated right here and right now, during this period, when your state needed it most. And I hear it all the time. Not everybody likes you, not everybody likes me. Everybody seems to like pop now, that's the benefit of being out for a while, it may be gone. I just hope you recognize what even I'm able to recognize, being spawned from the same wolf pack. I hope you are able to appreciate what you did in your state and what it means for the rest of the country now and what it will always mean to those who love and care about you the most. I'm wowed by what you did, and more importantly, I'm wowed by how you did it. This was very hard. I know it's not over. But obviously i love you as a brother, obviously I'll never be objective, obviously I think you're the best politician in the country. But I hope you feel good about what you did for your people because I know they appreciate it. Nothing's perfect, you'll have your critics."
