Starting off with some fact, yes real facts. New York Governor Andrew Cuomo is a New York City native. His father, Mario a three term governor of New York was born in Queens (yes that is in New York) to Italian immigrant parents and his mother, Matilda was also born in Queens. Now that enough for the actual facts, on with Andrew's spin.

During a bill signing, he stated

"I'm undocumented. You want to deport an undocumented person, start with me because I'm an undocumented person". After his fabricated statement, he claimed that his family whom emigrated to the US from Italy was constantly ridiculed with a racial slur that he said meant 'without papers'. He opened his mouth again (another faux pas) and said "I'm an Italian American. I came from poor Italian Americans who came here. You know what they called Italian Americans back in the day? They called them wops. You know what wop stood for? Without papers".

According to the Online Etymology dictionary, the slur originated from southern Italian dialect 'guappo', which means 'dandy, dude, stud'. But 'without papers' is more fitting for Andrew as he is definitely not a stud.

But if that's not enough, Cuomo addressed a group of union workers and said he was 'raised by poor immigrants from South Jamaica'.
