Chris Cuomo, a DEMOCRAT, just gave President Trump an A-RATING
In a surprising and attention-grabbing public statement, broadcaster and political commentator Chris Cuomo —a well-known Democrat and longtime voice of the mainstream left— gave former President Donald J. Trump an unexpected “A” grade. While Cuomo clarified that his rating was based strictly on “effort,” the recognition still turned heads, especially coming from someone who has openly criticized Trump throughout his presidency.
“I mean, the guy is active 24/7, 365 days a year,” Cuomo said, emphasizing Trump’s relentless energy and presence, even while critics tried to reduce him to a golf-obsessed billionaire. For Cuomo, being constantly engaged isn’t a liability —it’s a virtue in a leader. “You’ve got to be a complete person,” he said. “And that’s what we should want in our leaders.”
Cuomo’s surprising acknowledgment doesn’t necessarily signal agreement with Trump’s policies, but it does highlight a growing awareness within liberal circles of the stark contrast between Trump’s vitality and Joe Biden’s visible cognitive and physical decline. Cuomo even noted how most presidents leave the White House looking far older, referencing Barack Obama’s graying hair, while Trump “still looks the same.”
Though laced with sarcasm —mentioning Trump’s “inch of makeup” and comparing him to a “papier-mâché head”— Cuomo’s comments still included a striking admission: Trump, like it or not, shows an energy that simply can’t be ignored.
Cuomo also reflected on what “effort” really means in politics. While he previously dismissed it as a “soft metric,” he conceded that energy does matter —and Biden, in his words, reminded us of that fact. “We can’t have a president who isn’t anywhere near his best,” Cuomo said, in what could be interpreted as a stinging critique of the current administration.
Referencing former President Ronald Reagan, Cuomo admitted the comparison wasn’t perfect. Today’s situation is worse. Biden’s declining capacity has become impossible to ignore, and the bar for presidential readiness seems to be dropping dangerously low.
When a Democrat like Chris Cuomo —who built his career criticizing Republicans— admits that Trump is “absolutely everywhere,” that he’s “living his life,” and that he doesn’t look broken by the presidency, it reveals a deep fracture in the mainstream media’s narrative. And that shift could be pivotal heading into the 2024 election cycle.
Cuomo’s words reflect more than just a grudging respect. They suggest that even on the left, some are beginning to reevaluate Trump’s legacy —at least in terms of stamina, visibility, and relentless engagement. For millions of swing voters, that kind of vitality could weigh heavily against the image of a stumbling Biden.
Ultimately, Cuomo’s “A for effort” might seem small, but it’s loaded with meaning. If a Democrat is willing to admit that Trump remains sharp, tireless, and commanding —despite the media’s best efforts to portray otherwise— it may be time to accept that the political tide is turning.
