Major Democratic donors — who poured tens of millions into a Super PAC for Cuomo — were having private discussions Wednesday about whether to back an independent run by Cuomo in November’s general election, or rally behind unpopular incumbent Mayor Eric Adams, who’s also running as an independent.

    Then there’s Mark Gorton with the realpolitik

    Gorton gave $250,000 to Cuomo’s “Fix the City” super PAC but told the Times he ranked New York City Comptroller Brad Lander as his first choice for mayor.

    He added that he will likely support Mamdani because Lander and the state assemblyman cross-endorsed each other in the mayoral race.

    “I feel like people misunderstood my $250,000 for Cuomo for real enthusiasm,” Gorton told the Times. “It was basically, ‘Oh, looks like Cuomo is coming back. We don’t want to be shut out. Let’s try and get on his good side.’”

    Which tells you everything you need to know about Cuomoland; if you don’t grease his palms, you’re dead to him.
