There are few figures in modern American politics more arrogant than former New York governor Andrew Cuomo. This is a man who, you might remember, created one of the biggest debacles in his efforts to keep seniors in his state safe during the COVID-19 pandemic. He also was investigated by state attorney general Letitia Jame for not only that malfeasance but for sexually harassing 11 female employees. His chutzpah was evident throughout; he truly believed that he was too big to fail.
But as we saw, that wasn’t the case. While a report on the investigation about the COVID nursing home deaths was never released, the one I mentioned above about the vicious harassment (and the extensive cover-up, with the help of his staffers) managed to run him out of the Governor’s mansion.
Most politicians would keep their head down after such an ignominious fall. Not Cuomo. His ego just won’t allow…
