Leaving CNN may be the best thing that ever happened to Chris Cuomo. It freed him up to tell the truth once in a while.
He doesn’t always get things right, but he deserves credit for this recent rant where he went after the left for downplaying the first Trump assassination attempt where he took a bullet in the ear. Cuomo talked about this back in September, too.
Cuomo correctly points out that if this had happened to Harris, the left would have lost their minds.

Fuck you! You get nicked in the ear by a bullet and tell me that it’s no big deal. I’m good. I’m good. Nah, nah, that’s crazy. If that had happened to Harris, you guys would have talked about it for three days nonstop about how we’re in helter-skelter mode or whatever it is. And then you call me a bigot for saying that this is why you lost the election. That’s exactly why you lost the election. You are out of touch. You lost the plot about how people feel in the majority. That’s what you did.
And that was a perfect example of it. That situation? Well, I think it was just a teleprompter. You would have never assessed it that way if you didn’t wish the guy had died. How fucked up is that? That you wished he had died? That you played down that he was shot. It was disgusting. And I, for one, felt a measure of satisfaction that you were punished for it politically because there is no place for that. He would have – he is not the standard of any kind of virtue. Okay. And he still beat you.

Credit where it’s due. Cuomo got this mostly right, even though he did take an unfair dig at Trump’s virtues.
