Cuomo on McConnell Acknowledging Biden Win: Our Senate Leader Playing the Same Game as Putin

EXCERPT:

CUOMO: "Same face. Electors were an echo. Voters spoke six weeks ago. He knows transition matters. He said so when it suited him. He was silent because it worked for him. Despite what it meant to this country. Imagine, our own Senate leader playing the same game as Putin. Putin actually beat him to saying congratulations to the President-Elect. The Retrumplicans could not sabotage the election. They cannot be allowed to sabotage relief. Think about it in terms of context. In March, okay, trillions got out the door fast, everybody on board, even Trump was involved. Now, everything is worse, there’s no metric that isn't worse. Is it as bad as we thought it would be? Thankfully, in some ways no. I’m not saying there’s not pain. I know there’s pain on just about every level you can manage. But I’m saying the expectations were even worse, the projections. So, why is everything delayed right now? Why is a deal so hard to come by when everything is worse? Priorities have changed. So, who wins? A handful who are not in crisis or millions and millions again, who needed the relief a month ago? Christmas is ten days away. This is no time to take care of a special interest. But this is how McConnell plays. And he will continue to do so, as long as in power. That’s why Biden was back on the stump again today in the state that decides McConnell’s power."
