New York Governor Cuomo resigned today. The resignation appears to be the growing list of allegations related to sexual harassment of women on his staff.
This comes after last years’ worship fest from much of the media. Here are a few examples of the coverage:
Does the resignation show that even corrupt Democrats are accountable for their actions?
Should Cuomo face criminal prosecution related to allegations of a cover-up of thousands of needless deaths at nursing homes and alleged use of state resources to produce his book last year?
Or are the harassment allegations the only thing that may be worthy of further investigation?
Yes, I never thought he would actually resign. Democrats almost never face accountability for their actions.
Democrats appear to be pushing the harassment allegations as the main reason for the resignation, but I suspect the real reason was concerns about further revelations related the governor’s dismal COVID response.
I haven’t heard a peep from Bill Clinton in years. (And if I did, I would ignore it.) However, the last person you voted for, accused serial-rapist Donald Trump, is still the leader of the Republican Party. To borrow your expression, Republicans almost never face accountability for their actions from their own party.
no, it shows that cuomo knows that under ny law he cannot serve as gov while being impeached and he’d have to step down anyway. this way he avoids impeachment and avoids being held to account.
