Speaking during his opening monologue on ‘Hannity’ Thursday evening, Sean weighed-in on the Coronavirus pandemic hitting New York State; saying Governor Andrew Cuomo and Mayor Bill de Blasio were totally unprepared for the current crisis.
“We talk each night about the amazing businesses in this country, the amazing healthcare workers coming together and working non-stop to beat back this deadly disease… The people in this country are amazing,” said Hannity.
“We’ve also seen a series of bad actors… They’re rushing to blame every problem in the world on Donald Trump. New York’s Governor Andrew Cuomo, Mayor Bill de Blasio, they’re getting the support they need and they are blaming the federal government over and over again,” he added.
“The President doesn’t write bills, you might want to talk to Senator Chuck Schumer, not President Trump,” concluded Hannity. “Both of you need to stop politicizing this national emergency.”
