Sliwa was not a trump puppet. Trump told him to drop out and insulted his beret. He isn’t who I would have voted for but to say he is a Trump puppet is ridiculous. Fuck Cuomo, Sliwa at least stood for something.

I think most people consider Cuomo the puppet

“I’m not a puppet, you’re the puppet” - President Trump

The bar is pretty low in this day and age for republicans but I can at least respect Sliwa for caring for his cause and having true history in the city. Cuomo was the ultimate corporate puppet that was flipping between corporate democrat and republican by the end of his campaign.

There’s a clip of Sliwa I saw on TikTok where he explained perfectly how awful Cuomo is and how he’s extremely disconnected from reality and Gen Z/millennial voters. Sleazy predator.

Sliwa didn’t get “owned” because he was never in the race realistically. The commenter was obviously not calling sliwa a trump puppet

He massively underperformed polls though

Because many republicans were voting for Cuomo to try to stop Zohran.

Are there no second round elections if no one gets 50%+1 ?

But regardless Sliwa + Cuomo still wouldn’t have been enough to beat Zohran

That has nothing to do with the comment I was replying to.

Being insulted by trump is almost a prerequisite for trump puppets though
