This isn't true. NY did not force nursing homes to accept sick patients, some of them mistakenly thought that was the directive. The investigation into this showed the majority of deaths occurred because of sick workers causing infections compounded by unsafe operating practices rather than sick occupants being moved back in from hospitals.
"The Democrats weren't in a position to enact any restrictions "

They weren't in a position in January to implement the lockdowns that they eventually implemented in March? What changed?

"nor were they privy to the same intelligence Trump was which was far more serious than he was letting on"

The feds were keeping secrets from the states. That's what you're saying? And only Trump had the federal intelligence, not any democrats in congress? The democrat-controlled house, they didn't get briefings?

You're not backing into whatever scenario paints the democrats in the best possible light, no sir.

Every assumption you make, is in favor of liberals. Trump had the intelligence, but somehow congress didn't. Trump conspired with Russia, but the Bidens didn't sell influence for money.

It' snot Cuomos fault that NY was hit early and hard. Forcing nursing homes to admit sick residents? Beyond stupid.
