Cuomo caves in: NY Governor says he WILL give Feds access to state DMV records if Trump reverses ban on 175,000 New Yorkers accessing trusted traveler schemes - hours before meeting the President
2020-02-13
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • Cuomo is set to meet with Trump on Thursday to discuss their ongoing row over New York's immigration policies

  • In radio interviews on Wednesday, the New York governor said he is prepared to make concessions

  • He said he would allow federal officials limited access to DMV records

  • But in exchange the Trump administration would have to reverse its move to block New Yorkers from trusted traveler programs

  • The ban announced last week was in retaliation after the state passed a law which allows undocumented migrants to apply for drivers licenses

  • New York officials filed a lawsuit challenging the ban on Tuesday

#6  Trump will hand him a chicken and say " Bite it's head off while I make a video. "

#5  Trump's idea of negotiation starts with "Do it my way or lose all the Federal Money that goes to your state and kiss your Governorship goodbye."

So Cuomo will do something for Trump if Trump does something for Cuomo. Hey, isn't that like one of those quid pro quo thingies? I hear you can get in trouble for that.
