Embattled New York Governor Andrew Cuomo took the time to joke with a local reporter during a press conference in Albany this week; telling the man he’s a “tall, good looking blonde’ with a ‘button nose.’
Cuomo’s comments come days after the top Democrat refused to resign following a series of scandals surrounding his handling of the state’s CoVID pandemic and allegations of sexual misconduct from staffers.
“I’m not going to resign. I was not elected by the politicians. I was elected by the people,” said the Governor. “This is all I’m going to say about this topic at the time. I have a job to do. I’ve been doing it for 11 years. Everything that I have learned I am bringing to the table at this moment.”
“That’s what I’m going to focus on,” he added. The people of this state have known me for 40 years,” he added.
“I won’t speculate about people’s possible motives but i can tell you as a former attorney general who has gone through this situation many times, there are often many motivations for making an allegation and that is why you need to know the facts before you make decision,” he said.
