Democrat media darling CNN anchor “Fredo” Cuomo threatens fan with violence


Democrat media anchor at CNN Chris “Fredo” Cuomo threatens fan with violence for mistakingly calling him Fredo. From the network that calls a hundred million Americans racist sexist homophobes. Cuomo personally said the Convington kids were racists and should’ve quietly walked away when they were targeted by racist leftwing protestors.

“Fredo” is a reference to the brain damaged brother in The Godfather. Chris Cuomo, the brother of Democrat Governor of NY, Andrew Cuomo. And son of former Democrat Governor of NY, Mario Cuomo. Has had to settle for being a news anchor for the failing Democrat news network CNN.

Worst of all, he made the violent threats in front of his own children. Not the best example.

President Trump weighed in on the questionable parenting skills tweeting, “its a good thing Fredo didn’t have a gun”.

Priceless!

as an italian american, the cuomos are scum, real scum. we fled italy because the state taxed everything, even donkeys! and that loon wanted to bring the same big government we escaped from, to the country we escaped to. the whole family is scum. the sons are just democrat puppets, pushing agendas. sick people.

Chris Cuomo is a stupid punk. His defense is claiming "Fredo" is an ethnic slur on par with calling blacks the "n word". That's ludicrously untrue.

reply

In 2017, Fredo claimed that "fake news" was the "N word" for journalists.

reply

That's right, I remember that now. Great point. I wonder if Fake News Fredo considers "punk ass bitches", which he repeatedly called masses of people, to be the equivalent of any insulting words.

reply

He was also just fine with leftist guest Ana Navarro calling Donald Trump Jr. "Fredo" on his show.

He didn't bat an eye. Just sort of nodded in agreement. He even tweeted out her quote.

reply

the worst thing he could have done is overreact like that, now everyone will call him fredo

reply

I know. Fake News Fredo.

reply

When’s the last time a black family named their kid “n word”.

reply

”my name is Chris Cuomo, I’m an actor on CNN. I’m not dumb like everyone thinks. I’m smart! And I want respect!”

- Fredo Cuomo

Respect is earned, not demanded.

Dems do go to jail/prison. Nothing to worry about here.

reply

He's out of control.

reply

Damn, you beat me to it Gd5150. I was wondering why so many people were commenting so much on the Fredo word on CNN YT until I looked it up.

Also, fan? Lol, no fan would do that or 'mistakenly' use the word Fredo. It's like if someone went up to you and said nigger (if you were black) which is what he was referring to as the like n-word for Italians. He also says only right-wingers say this to him or whatnot.

Check this out. He didn't say anything when Ana Navarro used the Fredo word.

"I thought it was your name" Elite-level trolling.
"You're a much more reasonable guy than you appear on television."

Lets just say he got easily baited.

reply

So you're saying you would have acted much more maturely if baited with an ethnic slur directed at you?

I can't blame him for the way he reacted. He was out in public with his family and this punk from Daily Caller tried to bait him in an orchestrated setup.

reply

The funny thing is in addition to all the support he got from CNN and others, he also got support from longtime Trump supporters Sean Hannity and Geraldo Rivera.

Hannity tweeted:
I say good for @ChrisCuomo

He’s out with his 9 year old daughter, and his wife, and this guy is being a jackass in front of his family.

Imho Chris Cuomo has zero to apologize for. He deserves the apology.


Rivera tweeted:
I’m with Chris a hundred per cent. He should have clocked that douche.


Chris Cuomo for his part on twitter acknowledged his poor behavior and tweeted:
Appreciate all the support but - truth is I should be better than the guys baiting me. This happens all the time these days. Often in front of my family. But there is a lesson: no need to add to the ugliness; I should be better than what I oppose.

reply

lul @ Geraldo, exactly what I'd expect he'd say. And he would have too.

reply

Hannity always takes that position and opposes talk of boycotting, harassing, or firing liberals because he's worried about people doing that to him (they've repeatedly tried). Since the left does that anyway it amounts to unilateral disarmament and it's one area where Hannity prioritizes himself and his career over the country or conservative movement. No one's perfect. Rivera's a liberal and I'm not sure why him saying nice things about Trump sometimes due to a long personal friendship is relevant.

My own view is that one would be justified in criticizing someone who approaches someone else like that in public, especially when his family is with him (Hannity's right about that part), but Cuomo's reaction was insanely over the top and uncalled for. He's also straight up lying about "Fredo" being an "ethnic slur", let alone equivalent to "the N word". As has been observed on this thread he got into trouble before for equating "fake news" with "the N word", and was fine with Donald Trump Jr. being called "Fredo" on his own show, even tweeting out the quoted insult himself.

Hannity and the predictable leftist crowd aside, millions of people saw this and it doesn't make Cuomo look good or even mentally stable. The ones who follow it closely view him as even more hypocritical than they did before.

And it would be nice if the leftists outraged by this "harassment" also join Hannity in expressing outrage over real harassment of Republicans, like the mob chanting outside of McConnell's house at night making gruesome death threats, or the campaign, encouraged by Democrat office holders like Maxine Waters, of flash mobbing Trump officials or supporters when they're out in restaurants with their families, shrieking at them to try and make them leave. Could you imagine if a Republican responded with blustering violent threats and profanity to these far more serious provocations? Leftists in the media and elsewhere would pile on attacking the victims.

reply

The communist Democrat media/party called 100 million Americans racist white supremacist Hitlers every day for decades.

We do act much more maturely. We do it every day.

Sticks and stones.

No surprise one of the boards biggest Democrat lemmings supports his slave masters justifications for violence. We know who you are. We know what you’ll say before you do.

Time open your mind and educate yourself. Stop being a brainless predictable lemming.

reply

Wow the clip from CNN when the Fredo reference first started back in 2016. Chris Cuomo was on from Cuba proudly wearing a shirt Fidel Castro gave his dad.

Proudly wearing the shirt that was a gift from a man who’s imprisoned and killed 10’s of thousands for “political” crimes. A country run into the ground for over 50 years by 1 person. A place people die trying to escape. And the Democrat party media/party celebrate it.

Communism rolls on via the Democrat media/party.

Isn't it Wedo Cuomo?
