IMO, there has to be more to this. A year ago he was one of the leaders of the party with an approval rating in the 70s. It’s almost surreal that this happened. He had to piss off a powerful special interest.

So much of this shit goes on behind the scenes. The legislature was probably getting pissed about how much power Cuomo had so they started the wheels in motion. They want that power for themselves. Now they have it.

Lt Governor Kathy Hochul isn't as bad as you say. Some of her views are decidedly pro business and pro 2nd amendment. But yes, she is also liberal in other areas.

Last time I was in downtown Albany was before Covid. The main business street, South Pearl, had for rent signs on all the storefronts. Meanwhile you have all these huge government buildings bustling with activity. 😥 It’s completely divorced from the private sector.

Quite a few Dems pressured to resign around this country

And more than a couple of Republicans have gone down because of scandals. In 2018 nine members of Congress  were forced out of office because of  sexual misconduct scandals. Four of them were Democrats and Five were Republican. Many more folks have been accused of sexual misconduct but some of them managed to stay in office, i.e. Trump, Biden, Chief Justice Roy Moore (voted out), Brett Kavanaugh.

I don't think this is true.

Your boy strawman told us yesterday that this never happens to Repbublicans.

Just shows the difference between Democrats and Republicans

If this were a Republican you'd either hear nothing about it or the Republicans would be defending him

How many woman have accused Cuomo of inappropriate behavior ?

How many woman have accused Trump on inappropriate behavior ?

Something about this entire thing seems so off to me. Just a year ago, this guy was America's Governor. He could do no wrong. He was deemed a champion, received an international EMMY and there were even commercials of a bunch of celebrities thanking him (I can't find that commercial anymore, likely conveniently removed).

Today, he has fallen to the lowest pits of hell. He will go down in history as the guy who sexually assaulted women while holding political office. He won't go down as a great Governor. He won't go down as a respectable lawyer. He won't be remembered as NY state's savior amidst the first pandemic of our time. He will become the black sheep of his family and will forever walk the streets ashamed and unable to be at ease thinking that people will forever look his way and mutter the most vile and atrocious things possible.  WHAT THE FUCK!?!

I don't feel bad for the guy, as he created that mess, but holy shit! Who did he rub the wrong way (women aside)?

My GUESS is the teacher’s unions. During his daily press jerking offs he would go on about reimagining learning and he would ask why we need so many classrooms.

Ironically, I agree with him 100% on this issue, but that’s the last thing teacher’s unions want to hear.

Another possibility is the Clintons. We’ll see if Hillary swoops in and runs for Governor.

Less the result of teacher's unions and more the result of identity politics. Once the talk of Cuomo harassing women got traction, the greater the chance the Dems would lose a good part of the women voting block. By tossing him under the bus they now have a female governor...

Gotta disagree with you on this one. If he were still in good standing, these women all would’ve been paid off, given promotions, threatened or whatever. There’s something else going on.

The teacher's union aren't an issue. They have their contracts locked up for 3 years across the state and because of the Triborough Amendment they get extended anyways even with a contract impasse. I was a school board member in upstate NY so am very familiar with the union politics.

I’m just spitballing. I really don’t know exactly why he was shown the door but I’m pretty sure it’s alot more than just the sexual harassment bullshit. Look at how the Tara Reade story was buried for Biden. The charges against Cuomo are weak by comparison.

The nursing home debacle is obviously another possibility. Who knows how many lawsuits are coming down the pike?

Cuomo probably mocked Joe Biden due to his poor public speaking skills. Last year, Cuomo was doing daily briefings, and winning awards, and Biden was not making any appearances. Biden was in hiding, while the media was propping up Biden. Perhaps that pissed off Cuomo. Maybe privately Cuomo said that Trump was a better option than Biden.

He is now offering these men, who chose their path of self-destruction and on many occasions took the lives of others, $1,000/month plus “mentoring” from older ex-cons. What the fuck?
