“You’re gonna break your arm jerking yourself off,” Twitter user @Legalize_LSD1 tweeted at Cuomo. “That how this happened?!” Cuomo replied, with a picture of his flexed bicep. “Hahahaha. Come on, baby, dont hate – facilitate. You can do better than this petty bs.” (RELATED: Chris Cuomo Asks People To ‘Name One’ Fact That He Denies. The Internet Responds)

The tweet that prompted the exchange was Cuomo’s, expressing gratitude to @StanYeahMan on Monday morning. “Chris you and your colleagues are doing crucial work and doing it damn well. God bless you, man, and take care of yourself,” the user tweeted.
“Appreciated. We all know what we would want if we had missing loved ones. Crisis has no hue of red or blue. Or at least it shouldnt. The #SurfsideCollapse community was warm and embracing of need. Impressive and respected,” came Cuomo’s reply.
