Report: Cuomo Made Comment About Suklkos

לעתיד לבוא הקב"ה רוצה לנסות את אומות העולם, ונותן להם את מצוות הסוכה, והם בועטים ויוצאים (גמרא ע''ז)

In a story about Cuomo’s political career, The New York Times Magazine reported Cuomo’s frustration with a campaign appearance at a Sukkot event during his run for attorney general in 2006.

“These people and their (explitive)tree houses,” Cuomo said to his team, according to The Times. A spokesman denied the comment.“His two sisters married Jewish men, and he has the highest respect for Jewish traditions,” the spokesman said.

  1. The satmar rebbe was makpid that no goy should enter the sukka. This parading of politicians in a sukka is a Ezra Friedlander creation.
