Joe Biden to skip out of weekly COVID meetings with Governors, Andrew Cuomo takes over

Joe Biden is so worried about the effects the COVID-19 pandemic is having on the American people and the States they live in that both he and Kamala Harris have no intention of joining the weekly COVID-19 meetings with the Governors which were started under Donald Trump and continue to this day. (Despite a campaign promise to do so by the way.)

You would think maybe this is a good sign which means this foolishness will soon becoming to an end but you would most likely be wrong, in all likelihood the meetings are just too confusing for poor ole Uncle Joe so instead, get this, Andrew Cuomo is going now leading the meetings, here is more:

Embattled New York Governor Andrew Cuomo (D) has reportedly taken over the leadership of the weekly White House conference calls with the nation’s governors about the coronavirus pandemic, since President Joe Biden does not join them.

Philip Wegmann of RealClearPolitics reported Monday that Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris have both opted not to join the weekly conference calls with governors, unlike former President Donald Trump and Vice President Mike Pence.

Wegmann’s reporting was confirmed during Monday’s White House press briefing. Press Secretary Jen Psaki demanded to know how many governors he had spoken with, and insisted Biden had never intended to join the calls, despite his pledge a conference call with governors after the election in November that he would work closely with them once he took office.

In addition, Wegmann reported that Gov. Cuomo is now leading the weekly conference calls between the governors and the Biden administration’s coronavirus team, due to his role as head of the National Governors Association:

Andrew Cuomo now leads the calls as chairman of the National Governors Association. White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki explained that the New York governor was put in charge instead of the vice president because a change was needed.

Believe it or not, and I know you will, the Biden administration blamed Donald Trump for the President’s decision not to join the meetings, claiming he was too busy dealing with other aspects of the pandemic due to Donald Trump’s failures to lead during this time. Or something like that…

So, let me see if I can sum this up: Joe Biden cannot attend the meetings because of Donald Trump’s lack of leadership on COVID-19, so instead Andrew Cuomo, the man whose COVID-19 policies led to the deaths of thousands of New York’s elderly, is now going to be spreading his wisdom to governors across the country about dealing with COVID-19. If that is the type of leadership they want, and if the result of his policies in his State is considered success, it makes you wonder what the true goal of the pandemic response is…
