Cynthia Nixon demands Cuomo return $64K in donations from Donald Trump

[TexasTowelie]

Activists led by gubernatorial candidate Cynthia Nixon gathered outside the Trump Building at 40 Wall Street Wednesday to demand Gov. Andrew Cuomo return prior donations he received from President Donald Trump.

Cuomo, who is seeking a third term in office and will face Nixon in the Democratic primary election on Sept. 13, received $64,000 in donations from Donald Trump between 2001 and 2009, the New York Post reported last month.

Trump, then a real estate mogul and reality TV star, gave to both Democrats and Republicans prior becoming president in 2016.

Nixon has been calling on her rival Cuomo to return the Trump donations, but when questioned at a July event in Brooklyn, the governor said, “I’m going to be deeply critical of him and keep the contributions.”
