SALT Talks: Governor Andrew M. Cuomo pscp.tv/w/cnLkbTFEWUVY…
“Let me just start by saying I’m not that other Cuomo, @Scaramucci, who lobs so softball questions.” @NYGovCuomo wastes no time taking a brotherly jab at his favorite target, @ChrisCuomo. 😂
"We're eight months into this [pandemic] and the numbers [across the country] are worse than ever... the government has been incompetent. It has been a denial in that the President now admits he lied about it." -@NYGovCuomo #SALTTalks
“New York state had the highest infection rate in the country. We’re now the third lowest,” behind more rural and less dense Maine and Vermont. -@NYGovCuomo #SALTTalks
"We test at such a level I can tell you which neighborhood has an outbreak. We focus on those micro-clusters and we lock down that are with restrictions, but only within a 2 mile area." -@NYGovCuomo #SALTTalks
“You can’t get the economy going until you solve the health riddle... People make their decisions based on what they’re comfortable with.” -@NYGovCuomo on why simply opening up the economy would not see a return to business #SALTTalks
“I was listening to the federal government and that was a mistake. They said you can only spread the virus if you’re symptomatic. That was wrong.” -@NYGovCuomo #SALTTalks
"The problem was not politics. Trump is an impossible human being to deal with." -@NYGovCuomo

"I didn’t know that!" -@Scaramucci with tongue planted firmly in cheek

#SALTTalks
.@NYGovCuomo on top four priorities for a potential Biden administration:

"COVID, COVID, COVID and economic stimulus."

#SALTTalks
"I think Biden is going to be the turning point to stop us focusing on our differences and to focus on the commonalities… I think there’s a common sense [to this #pandemic] that Biden can communicate.” -@NYGovCuomo #SALTTalks
“I think the vaccine will be the light at the end of the tunnel. We’ll need a vaccine distribution plan. We have to do 330m vaccinations and we have to do two doses.” -@NYGovCuomo on the massive undertaking ahead #SALTTalks
“You’re nothing but your word and handshake. There was a lot speculation about my running for president or vice president... I said I have no plans [to seek higher office] and will stay to get us through COVID.” -@NYGovCuomo on his plan to run for a fourth term as Governor

“I always live in the future, aiming for something. If you come in with character, you stand out [compared to the homogenous makeup of financial institutions]. Being an anti-establishment figure within the establishment increases my chances [for success].” -@RaoulGMI #SALTTalks
“The premise of #bitcoin is basically a math formula. The formula gets more difficult over time. Every time you solve it, you get rewarded [w/ coins]. It all gets recorded on the #blockchain, so it’s impossible to change.” -@RaoulGMI #SALTTalks
