Former Democratic New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo positioned himself as the best person to oppose President Donald Trump should he be elected mayor of New York City later this year. 

Cuomo’s comments came as he received an endorsement from Queens County Democratic Party Rep. Gregory Meeks. At an event at the party’s headquarters in Forest Hills, Meeks said Cuomo was a proud “Queens boy,” as Cuomo positioned himself as the official to lead New York City because of his previous experience as governor during Trump’s first term.
