In the middle of a pandemic, CNN host Chris Cuomo and his brother, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, bickered on-air about which one of them is their mother’s favourite. During a segment aired on March 16, Governor Cuomo sidestepped the question from his brother, Chris, about the possibility of imposing a curfew by talking about his past experience.

“I don’t like the word curfew. Dad tried to have a curfew for me. I never got past the resentment,” said the Governor.

The surprised anchor tried to come up with a funny response to which Governor Cuomo said, “You violated the curfew all the time”.
