Third sexual harassment accusation against Andrew Cuomo.

[Sir Mohamed]

Ugh. Hopefully this finishes the dude off. Mr. Cuomo a scumbag and close to Trump-level bad; an abusive man using his power for inappropriate behavior, who creates a toxic workclimate and threatens his critics. I'm just afraid he tries to sit this out like Northam in 2019, though Cuomo's scandals are much worse than blackface 35 years ago Northam sincerely apologized for. It's more comparable to Fairfax, who shouldn't be in office either. It's for sure worse than Al Franken, who was forced to resign from office.

Dems of rank and file nationwide and in NYS, especially Biden/Harris, Schumer and Gillibrand, should call for his immediate resignation. DeBlasio has pretty much done so, as has Rep. Kathleen Rice (D). Don't let this sleazybag get away with this and the nursing home stuff. And no, making such comments is not normal. I never have imagined to ask female colleagues or trainees about their sex life. This. is. not. normal. Let alone the alleged touching and kissing.

Practically anything could be interpret as “sexual harassment” these days.

[Brittain33]

It seems relevant that this third woman doesn’t work for the state or the governor and this is completely him making a pass at a woman which was unwelcome, which isn’t the same as workplace sexual harassment.

Yeah, dude: depending on the context, that can very much constitute sexual harassment, no disingenuous quotation marks needed. Last I checked, you're not the arbiter of what constitutes unwanted, improper, offensive, inappropriate conduct.

Right, because that's all he did.

Maybe you're right, the good old days were better, back before Cuomo's actions were inappropriate. You could grab a broad from work and ask her if she'd ever ed an older dude and then steal a kiss without being ""canceled"". We are so much less enlightened now. If I can't even screw my underlings what's the point of having a position of power?

Pretty much anything these days qualifies as "sexual harassment" so as long as the accuser deems it so.

This is also the issue here: if you're acting as if "touching someone's back" is the only thing that Cuomo did, then that's just even more proof of not knowing what the f**k you're talking about.

[President Johnson]

The dam is breaking now, it seems. I actually have no doubt it happened the way these women came forward told the press. Cuomo must resign as soon as possible, everything else, including the nursing home scandal, needs to thoroughly investigated. In the meantime, New York for sure can't afford a governor who's busy with this kind of stuff but needs someone who's focused on doing the job.

I wonder whether more is there? I could see more women coming forward in the next few days.

"he placed his hands on her face and asked if he could kiss her at her friend's wedding"

Apparently, that qualifies as "sexual harassment" these days/

If anybody else comes forward, then he's well & truly done: forced resignation, if not impeachment & removal.

I don't know why you're saying that sarcastically because, yes, that can definitely qualify as sexual harassment depending on the context thereof, not that you evidently care. Or are you seriously just incapable of understanding how that conduct can be unwanted, improper, offensive, & inappropriate?

By the way, very good of you to just conveniently ignore the even worse things he's accused of that NYDem brought up. Or are you just gonna say next that asking a young, subordinate employee of yours if she's ever f**ked an older dude like you actually can't constitute sexual harassment because "reasons"? And what about attempting to engage in inappropriate sexual conduct such as strip poker with a young, subordinate employee of yours? Does that also not constitute sexual harassment because "reasons"? Actually, not even because "reasons," given that you haven't even actually managed to provide any reasoning - (ir)rational or otherwise - as to why you're evidently of the belief that such actions can't constitute sexual harassment. Funny how that works.

What she should say is "I am sorry, but I think I know where this is going and I don't want to go there."

If he pushes further, then that would be inappropriate.

Ah yes, because a freaked-out person in that position definitely has the composure to tell this man with power over her that. Nice victim blaming.
