I wrote a book where I called out—

Some of the bad things I saw behind the scenes with Andrew Cuomo, some of the things that I thought he was very dishonest with people about, certainly relating to his sexual harassment scandal.

And then when he ran, I was one of the only Cuomo staffers who was willing to publicly call him out.

Why?

It's pretty obvious.

He's a pretty vengeful guy.

But I thought it was really important.

And I saw in Zoran Mamdani someone who I didn't agree with on a lot of issues.

Yeah.

But, you know, he did in a lot of ways, not ideologically, but in terms of his optimism, his presentation, remind me a little bit of Pete.

Yeah.

He tingled a little optimism.

I loved how much he loved New York City.

And I found that he talked about issues not in that weirdo, lefty, intellectual way with all those words I don't understand.

Yeah.

Yeah.

And I liked the, you know, free 2K for people.

And...

My biggest concern, so I ranked him in the primary.

I proudly supported him, voted for him in the general.
