A son rises........from the trash

 The Air Force's slogan is "Aim High". A second generation New York politico is aiming high, alright, but a wee bit too high for a political neophyte.

Current New York Governor Andrew Cuomo will be up for re-election in 2022, provided, of course, he can weather the storm of sexual misconduct allegations lodged against him, and remain in office by Election Day 2022.

Then again, if this is the best the GOPers can come up with at the moment, it might not matter.


Apparently, Andrew Giuliani has never read Santayana, else he'd know he's in for a long, losing battle come next year. He announced he was running for Governor, hoping Cuomo collects enough baggage to the point where the voters will decide they've had enough of the three term head of New York government. While his father, former mayor and US Attorney Rudy Giuliani, has been caught in the maelstrom of scandal just for being associated with former president Donald Trump, 30-something Andrew, like Trump, is a political newbie, but he's showing some chutzpah already by claiming he's been in politics since he was a toddler.

Yeah, right. Let us know if you've got a license to sell the Brooklyn Bridge, kid.

What Andrew Giuliani fails to comprehend is that the toxic political environment his father is in will hurt his chances, more than it'll end Cuomo's run. By this time next year, we can see the prospect of his father being either in Bellevue or prison, right alongside his pal, Dumb Donald.

Simple lesson to learn, kid. Read the room first before you make a career decision you'll regret later.
