Most of the wealthiest states are blue states while most of the poorest states are red.  The Republicans criticizing the Democrats for the way they run things are like kids complaining about how stupid their parents are while still living in their parents basement and depending on them to pay the bills

Cuomo ripped McConnell when he called covid relief a "blue state bail out" and started number dropping how dependent Kentucky is on the federal govt compared to New York.
