The Ruthless Rise and Lonely Decline of Andrew Cuomo

Gov. Andrew Cuomo of New York is known as a hard-charging, ruthless political operator.

But his power has always come from two sources: legislators’ fear of crossing him and his popularity among the electorate.

But does he still have the support of voters?

Guest: Shane Goldmacher, a national political reporter for The New York Times.
