Not the one’s my state and it depends on how poorly of a job they’re doing on things that have a national impact. Do cons generally not pay attention to localized leaders that are in the spotlight?

No. 

They blame the President. Just like the libs are doing.

I have never seen so much attention being put on governors and mayors before.

Well this pandemic is a unique situation that no American has seen before and it is shedding a lot of light on the abilities of those local leaders. In fairness to them, there are no good answers or solutions to dealing with this pandemic.

I really don't think this is the reason why.

I don't recall much talk about them prior to the pandemic and riots. I can't say I really paid that much attention to it though

Exactly.

It's deflecting the blame from.... someone.

Yeah, there's some of that for sure but things like riots and pandemic responses do fall pretty heavily on the locals. For example, should Cuomo have ordered the assisted care facilities to house positive patients? These type of decisions are not the responsibility of leaders at the federal level as every state and city have unique needs so they don't need their micro-management. Ideally it is not a good thing for the feds to send in their folks to deal with local riots and disturbances because the local leaders are either afraid to deal with them or they support it. They need to stop them and yes, it's their fault that they are out of control.

This the appropriate way to handle grievances. Not riots

I remember when Republicans supported state's rights.

Guess it's only when the governor is a Republican.

Where is it the people of Michigan are not exercising their state right to alter their governor's powers and it is being altered by the federal government?

Dude, they are handling this at the state level. There is no federal intervention at all here

I’m convinced she’s a drunk bot.

Her and Biden would make for a great comedy duo. Just rambling on incoherently, stepping over each other's pauses and sounding like an Alzheimer's stage play of When Harry Met Shakespeare in the Parking lot of a Wendy's.
