Cuomo threatens to "displace" NY Mayor Deblasio and bring in the National Guard

This is misleading. He said he thought de blasio didn't deploy enough NYPD.

He was almost intentionally goaded into saying he would go over deblasio's head:

Cuomo reiterated that 13,000 National Guard troops are “on standby” statewide and available to any mayors who request them, but showed no willingness to go over the head of de Blasio, who has resisted calls to take that drastic step. “You’d have to displace the mayor,” said Cuomo, again calling for even more cops to hit the streets. “I do believe the NYPD, well deployed, wouldn’t need the National Guard.”
