You dont’t want a “mayor mamzerani” policing this.That’s why you must support Cuomo, and much more importantly, you must convince your favorite Askanim to join in efforts with other prominent figures to Force Eric to quit. Notice, I didn’t say “convince” or “plead”.To paraphrase the Rebbe, “There’s a fire. You instinctively reach for a nearby bucket and empty it on the fire, but it was GASOLINE”
