A former aid to Andrew Cuomo ripped her into old boss after a heated press conference exchange between the New YorkĀ governor and reporters, alleging that despite his ācompetentā governorship throughout the pandemic, āthis is who he is the rest of the time.ā
In an Op-ed for The Nation, Alexis Grenell called Cuomo a āsnarling attack dog who gaslights fellow Democrats and deploys staff to call his female critics āfāāgĀ idiotsā.ā

Cuomo reportedly got fired up after a reporter said they were confused on the status of New Yorkās public school policy, amid the fluctuating severity during the coronavirus pandemic.
āFirst of all letās try not to be obnoxious and offensive in your tone because youāre 100 percent wrong, these laws have all been in effect for months,ā Cuomo said, referring to the New Yorkās standard for keeping schools closed if the infection rate surpasses three percent. āI donāt know if you were here, or you were paying attention.ā
āIām confused. Parents are still confused as well,ā Wall Street Journal reporter Jimmy Vielkind reportedly said, aided by a New York Times reporter who also said they were confused on the stateās current situation.
Grenell accused Cuomo of a āTrump-style tantrum,ā an ironic comparison given the twoās testy relationship throughout the pandemic and Trumpās repeated claims that the media has treated him unfairly.
Cuomo reportedly told reporters last week that parents are not in fact confused, and advised them to read the laws surrounding their COVID-19 policies.
āI donāt really care what you think,ā he added after The New York Times reporter also voiced his confusion. āOf course you agree with him, because youāre in the same business with him.ā
But Grenell claimed this sort of behavior is not out of left field, and she wrote how the spat highlighted what some see as Cuomoās lack transparency in addressing the coronavirus pandemic.
āCuomo undeniably offered a vision of competent, humane government at the height of the crisis, but this is who he is the rest of the time,ā Grenell wrote. āItās why he and his staff reflexively insult anyone who criticizes his handling of the pandemic.ā

Grenell also pointed out that Cuomo never answered the questions to clear up the reporterās confusion.
Mayor Bill de Blasio and Schools Chancellor Richard Carranza thenĀ announced that schools would be closed, beforeĀ the end of last weekās press conference.Ā Grenwell said this suggested that the state and city officials were not on the same page when it came to coronavirus safety standards and what led to the reporterās confusion to begin with.
Cuomoās office could not be immediately reached to comment on the critical op-ed targeting the governorās demeanor and leadership.
