www.wktv.com/story/34732381/new-york-post-governor-cuomo-moving-towards-presidential-runMay the good Lord have mercy on our souls. Andy wants to share his corruption and NY's tendency to tax everything but the air that you breathe with the rest of us. He drove Remington Arms and other business out of NY State, now I guess he wants to drive them off-shore. We escaped the high taxes by moving South. If he is elected POTUS we would most likely have to look at property in Mexico or Panama to escape the high taxes.

You'll never get in Mexico that wall is for both directions. And in Panama you will be watching for Zika mosquitoes.

We will have to move to Panama and bring lots of "Off" insect repellent with us.

We have elected two consecutive presidents with no particular qualifications for the office. Electing one with a career of government executive experience with no particular accomplishments seems like a logical next step.
You may have to move farther south than Panama. I understand there is some newly opened beachfront property in Antarctica. No mosquitoes.

It is ironic that we have sank so deep as to repeatedly elect unqualified individuals to attempt to lead our great nation. How long can we keep up such an erroneous trend and still remain the strongest nation in the world?
I have hope for the agenda of the Trump administration if he can simply eliminate the ridiculous and obnoxious, unsubstantiated statements such as the accusation that Obama ordered wire tapping of Trump tower. It is obvious that the eaves dropping occurred, as our government has had their ears and eyes on ALL OF OUR communications since Obama's executive order that gave permission for 17 different government agencies to gather information by covert eaves dropping and electronic means. I listened to a former CIA operative yesterday on Sean Hannity's radio program. It is a bit unnerving to realize that our government actually has access to every communication we have, now including the ability to eaves drop on us through our Samsung Smart TV. Actual wire tapping is not even necessary any more in order for them to access our most private communications via phone or the internet, and even verbal communication in our own living rooms.
Trump has many great ideas for improving our country, but his obnoxious persona and tendency to tweet paranoid and unvetted accusations and false information will bring him down if it doesn't stop. It is quite disappointing to see him continue the outbursts on Twitter. The war with media has to end. His need for revenge against network news agencies is ridiculous and childish. The nation has a right to the news and freedom of the press. It will not always be favorable to a particular party and will not always agree with one side or the other in the political arena. That is what is great about the freedom of speech and freedom of the press. I think he needs to realize that the press room at the White House is there to support OUR right to know and is not his to rule over like a spoiled child. The White House still belongs to the American people and he is only a tenant, like it or not.
The only consolation may be that if he continues to make faux pas and mistakes, and the Democrats find a way to impeach him, Mike Pence would most likely be an effective and successful president, and may stand a better chance of being re-elected than Trump does if he doesn't change his arrogant ways.
One has to wonder if there is any future prospects for such an egomaniac to set aside his bull in the china shop manner of barging ahead blindly.
I am still glad at this point that I voted for him, as I believe we would be far worse off with Hillary sitting in the oval office, but I actually had hopes that he would become more "presidential" when the campaign was over and he actually held the nation's highest office. The fact that he won the primary was a surprise, and it was a real shock to awake on the morning after the election to find that he had won the election.
We can only hope and pray that things settle over time and we can get back to some level of normalcy and stability.

I'll just have to change my party to vote against him in the primary.
