The back-and-forth kicked off after the president responded on Twitter to comments Cuomo made during a press briefing on the public health crisis.
Cuomo, a Democrat, complained that guidelines Trump announced the day before, which shifted the onus of reopening parts of the economy to the states, amounted to passing the buck "without passing the bucks."
The federal government had provided "zero, zilch, nada in unrestricted aid" in its first three Covid-19 rescue bills even as it asks states to up their efforts, Cuomo said. "This is mayhem," Cuomo said. "We need a coordinated approach between the federal government and the states." "We have given New York far more money, help and equipment than any other state, by far, & these great men & women who did the job never hear you say thanks," he wrote. "Your numbers are not good. Less talk and more action!"
"The number came from a projection from him. So he should read the reports he issues, Cuomo said. "Were we foolish for relying on your projections, Mr. President?"
