American Crisis: Leadership Lessons from the COVID-19 Pandemic

I enjoyed reading this as much as I enjoyed reading the \”Confessions of My Majestic Wonderfulness\” by Joseph Stalin and \”Another Great Day Being Me\” by Pol Pot — equally enlightening books, showing the heartfelt emotion of lovingly, caressingly killing people, while getting to blame others! All kidding aside, one has to have some empathy, in that Cuomo was faced with a virulent virus with a population that is woefully unhealthy and with a population pyramid which itself has a fat belly But here\’s a real critique: The decision to return COVID positive patients to nursing homes killed thousands, a fact he refuses to take any responsibility for. The lockdowns and restrictions created an utter devastation to the economy. Lead by science? Let\’s remember that \”lead by science\” was also the hallmark of the eugenics movement in Nazi Germany; one doesn\’t dismiss science, but the science during COVID has been simply terrible and totally politicized. COVID is a dangerous disease, but Cuomo\’s audacity in writing a book on \”leadership lessons\” just stinks.

Your browser does not support HTML5 video. On March 25th Andrew Cuomo signed a mandate that required nursing homes already on lockdown to accept covid positive patients. My Dad was stuck in his room for 3 months and contracted covid. 6 months later my once mobile dad is now an invalid, stuck in a wheelchair parked at the nurses station. Cuomo is a failure. Outside of NY state he has everyone else fooled.

My original review was deleted. My opinion has not changed. The governor’s book is a collection of lies that caused the cruel neglect and needless deaths of thousands. Congratulations Crown Publishing; you foisted this fiction on the public and made a lot of money at the cost of your integrity.

This book was everything that I thought it would be – Cuomo is completely out of touch with reality and a total narcissist. As a person who has lived in NY my entire life, I purchased this in an attempt to understand his disgusting policies that have killed countless elderly trapped in nursing homes and bankrupted small businesses all throughout Long Island. No one wants to live here anymore because of his tyrannical idea of \”leadership.\” If I could give this book 0 stars I would. The only point of even reading this book is to understand what not to do if you would like to be an effective leader.

Started reading, wasn’t worth it.
