As we have learned, many Americans really do think this way. It isn't even a joke anymore. Americans will vote massively against their own interests so long as they think it might hurt people they dislike.

I refuse to automatically assume you cared about your husband, so your position as a widow means nothing to your argument, which doesn't actually exists at all without that assumption.
Cuomo murdered my husband but I don't care because I believe he will support my economic class better and keep me rich and money is happiness.
tl;dr: she's a proud dewormer believer..ie, trumper
Wow. Terminally stupid.
tbf if Cuomo killed my ex I'd vote for him too
I can’t vote since I’m only a green card holder, but I’m so happy my husband isn’t an idiot and voted for Mamdani.
I have 0 clue to who these accounts are, who the person are, what's happening in NY and where the meme comes from. Anyone to enlighten me? Too lazy to do a quick search.
It's likely just a bot. It's a common tactic to claim an identity of authority and then make a statement. Almost always bots.
"I'm a liberal and I can't stand x, so I'm voting for Republican!"
"I'm a doctor and because of x I don't recommend to my patients to do y."
They're trying to steer public opinion with these posts. Some try to get fancy and use LLMs to make them so they're not all identical. And so you get rediculous statements like the above. No human would vote for someone who killed their husband. Hence the disgusted reaction.
I'm not a NYC resident, so I can't vote in their election, but I wouldn't vote for Cuomo if I was!
:)
(Not a bot)
Today is the NYC mayoral election. Cuomo is one of the candidates, former governor of NY and, among other things, a sex pest.
among other things
And there are SO MANY OTHER THINGS
And just to add, he failed to get the Democratic nomination, so he's running independent.
Anyone know what the reaction screenshot is from?
I'm guessing Gossip Girl?
Damn, they've got convicted murderers running for office over there, AND getting votes? Wild.
I honestly don’t know what she’s talking about, but if I had to guess, it’d be an indirect death tied to Cuomo’s mishandling of nursing homes during the pandemic.
I googled her name. She seems to believe that the medicine proscribed killed her husband, and they should be using horse dewormer instead.

Looks like my intuition was right, minus the whole anti-vax and COVID conspiracy theory detour.
it's US politics, without murders or Epstein visits we can assume they have no political experience
Have you been in a coma for the past decade?
Don't kink shame.
Is anyone else worried that Cuomo will be the spoiler dividing the democrats and an R ends up winning?
I bet her husband’s family is just so pleased.
Stella clearly wasn’t a good wife. She probably asked Andy to do it.
