On Wednesday, disgraced Former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who lost a Democrat primary battle to wild-eyed democrat socialist Zohran Mamdani in June but refuses to slip away into the night gracefully, released a spot of his own on Instagram Tuesday that would have even Joe Biden pulling out his trademark phrase, “c’mon man.”
The man formerly dubbed the “Love Gov” during the COVID era because of his bizarre giggling appearances on CNN and his cheery press briefings as people suffered, apparently just happened to be in the perfect spot to help out some guy whose car wouldn’t start. It was portrayed as just one of those natural Big Apple moments—although despite having lived there for years, I never saw anything like it—and trust me, the cabbies would have been honking their behinds off.
But before we get to the videotape, here’s Cuomo’s message:
New Yorkers, start your engines…
Together, we can fix this city!
We can be there for each other
We help
We do
And we will — together
Ok… Whatever any of that means.
And now cue up the 1970s TV detective music, because here comes Andrew the Hero:
How fortunate for this random dude in New York City that was having car trouble, for mayoral candidate Andrew Cuomo to just happen to show up in a completely unorchestrated way with a pair of jumper cables? pic.twitter.com/8AHHIpXATj

Seriously, what’s with the hero-style music—he’s freaking jump-starting a car, not forcibly stopping any of the many criminals roaming the streets of the City that Never Sleeps.
After the election loss, Cuomo declared that he is running as an independent, meaning the anti-Mamdani vote could be split three ways come November between incumbent Mayor Eric Adams—who ditched the Democrats in April and also became an independent—and Republican Curtis Sliwa.
At least one but probably two of these candidates needs to drop out if Mamdani is to be stopped from his stated desire to radically transform New York City into some sort of socialist utopia. That, as we know, inevitably ends extremely badly.
