You claim to want to end homelessness yet you yourself are housed. Curious.

"Cuomo is registered to vote in a ritzy rental complex on E. 54th Street that as of a year ago was priced at $8,242 a month, according to StreetEasy and city election records."
People who say America didn't deserve 9/11 have never heard Andrew Cuomo speak
You make $142,000 a year plus stipends, and your wife WORKS too...
Is it surprising that a liberal has no understanding of class? This is the dumbest American shit, getting mad at someone paid a decent wage or salary for their work and then lumping them in with billionaire capitalists getting paid in surplus labor value. It's like them getting all worked up because Bernie Sanders has a weekend cabin, him and a bunch of 1950s auto workers all over Michigan.
If this was written by a staffer, then yeah, theres a decent chance they don't have too keen a grasp on the numbers.
But if it was actually written by Cuomo, then this is beyond cynical. That guy definitely knows the difference between a number that sounds large and a number that is large.
Oh, you want rent control? Well then why don't you move out of your apartment? 
Oh, you're wealthy and you want to tax the wealthy? Hypocrite
Oh, you're poor and you want to tax the wealthy? Jealous much?
It continues to be very funny how the Democrats have absolutely no dirt against Zohran Mamdani and they keep showing it.

Excuse me did you miss the 500 comment thread repeating right wing news about how Mamdani is compromised because he was seen standing next to Elizabeth Warren
and he ~~stole~~ borrowed a table!
And then he laughed it off! As if it wasn't totally a crime!
WEE!
Folks, they have NOTHING. The people further left than Mamdani almost have more dirt they can use than the right does.
Cuomo thinks just because he's italian, he's safe 
TIL youre considered wealthy in New York if you make 100,000 dollars a year and rent an apartment
I mean I would kill for 100k usasian a year
It's not even 100k u.s.
Maybe like debt as you're getting shafted with all the shit the fed forces you to buy just to have an iota of a normal life. But at that point you might as well be a grocery clerk and get the same thing but without selling your body to uncle sam
Oh totally in would too that's more than double what I've ever made in my life. So by my standards and lifestyle, I would consider myself rich, but I would bet that 100k in NYC shakes out to middle class, essentially
The literal black hole in the middle of the Milky Way calling the kettle black.
Are you fuckin kidding me? If cuomo won this would be literally the only thing he'd do to address the housing crisis, pressure mamdani to move out of his single, individual apartment
lol at Andrew Cuomo calling someone making $200,000 a year very rich. I wish cancel culture was real and #MeToo as powerful as the chuds think so this sexual predator would've actually had his career ruined.
His career was already pretty shit he needs to spiral even further down into being a literal roach
Bet he had to google the rest of lgb
Lmao what
He has an apartment so he should move so someone else can rent it? I don't get it
He's got an apartment that legally has to be "cheap", so he should move to an apartment priced at a normal extortionate rate so that the poor family can move in (except they probably won't, even)
Does Cuomo really think that apartment wouldnt have the rent jacked up if they moved out?
And WTF does he mean by poor people should be living in that $2300/mo rental? That’s twice as much as my mortgage and I’m not well off.
Yeah, that's the one thing I know about rent control
Landlords hate it and as soon as they get the opportunity they figure out how to remove it
How was he supposed to know that? He's never rented an apartment in his life
lol this is so weak
So Andrew Cuomo is going to start letting people live in his house rent free now?
I don't think this is that important either way, but what is the truth or falsehood of what he's saying?
The answer is, the truth or fiction of it is irrelevant, because the premise is fucking stupid. The solution to a family being homeless and Zohran Mamdani having an apartment isn't to have Zohran Mamdani be homeless and that family get his home—everybody should have a home they can afford.
You mean socialism isn't the Poverty Olympics?
Not to mention that the family in question almost certainly can't afford $2300/mo anyway.
I already prefaced my question with the point that it doesn't matter. We agree, the solution here is not Zohran being homeless. I'm just curious if the aspect of this that is just factual claims is correct.
