Upside is people may see him resign as a form of penance, then if they see him get a job in the Biden admin it must mean that Cuomo either wasn't guilty or he paid his price and is welcome back in the party. Rehabilitates his image with people not paying attention or only paying attention to the good news outlets.

Powerful people on both sides of the aisle learned from Trump that all they have to do is say "nah" to literally any allegation, and people will eventually stop caring about it. There is no downside.

I mean, what's the upside of most of the weirdly spiteful things people like Joe do? It's just owning the people who make him mad. Those uppity metoo'ers and people with dead grandparents forgot that orange man was the real bad, show em who's boss by giving Cuomo a job even after he doesn't run for office again. e: the question should be what's the downside to doing it? Do you think the dem base will punish Joe for it if he does it in any way?

The people claiming Biden will appoint Cuomo to something are the same people claiming that he would staff his administration with Rahm Emanuel and Larry Summers. Needless to say, these predictions were off the mark

Needless to say, these predictions were off the mark They were right in that these individuals were almost welcomed into notable seats of the administration, but were wrong in guessing how much criticism the administration was willing to stomach to do so. That was early on. Could be different now, could be the same. It would be great if similar orgs to those that objected to Rahm and Larry would have sufficient pull to make the Clintons and Cuomo and others personae non gratae for sex crimes, war crimes, etc.

The NYT had an update on the parallel state & legislative investigations into Cuomo:quote:ALBANY, N.Y. — Four women who have accused Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo of sexual harassment have received subpoenas to testify under oath, the latest indication that the state attorney general’s investigation into Mr. Cuomo’s behavior has entered a critical phase. https://www.nytimes.com/2021/05/15/nyregion/cuomo-sexual-harassment-investigation.html I'm sticking with my prediction that Cuomo's gonna run the clock on this.

some plague rats posted:Cuomo has already gotten away with it at this point, hasn't he. James is coming out with her report results by the end of summer; she's only examining the harassment charges. The assembly's investigation is taking longer, because it includes the nursing-home fuckups, and will prolly be slow-walked till Cuomo announces whether he'll run for another term. I don't think he will.

NBC News first reported in February that Biden was considering Emanuel, a chief of staff in the Obama White House. The reward for covering up the murder of black teens is evidently a cushy ambassador post.

Also, just lol at the idea that Cuomo's gonna be impeached at this point, especially when he had the speaker of the state assembly intimidating critics and potential witnesses against Cuomo as of a couple months ago.

So when are we going to admit Cuomo isn't going to face any consequences for sexual misconduct, is there like a deadline date where we finally admit we were all wrong if he's still governor on that day. I'd think we would have thrown away any hope of powerful rapists being prosecuted once both parties nominated one, but I guess we're still holding out hope?

James is finishing her inquiry by the end of this summer. But I fully expect the state assembly to then whine that BUT OUR INVESTIGATION IS STILL ONGOING and do jackshit till Cuomo announces early next year that he's not going to run again, after which the state assembly decides the issue is moot and Biden slots him a cabinet appt. (not announced till after the midterms, though).

I read that he's looking to serve as many terms as his dad and I think he's still polling well. Plus him stepping down kinda makes him look guilty, so I think Gov Cuomo won't be going anywhere What a loving monster

I don't think he'll see any consequences to anything but his perceived political future. Basically, what he thought he deserved (senate, high position in another admin, presidency) and was most assuredly going to get because it was his due, even if he didn't ever have a real shot. I'd love to be wrong but he and many powerful democrats continue to get away with so much stuff. Its possible he thinks he can survive, be vindicated (read: threaten, sleaze and buy his way out) and brute force past the allegations in another election. I have no doubt he is doing everything he can to get to every person who can corroborate what he did. Its a sad state of politics in NY and the democratic party that the investigations may find him guilty and he still runs and wins the primary. Guy is a corrupt creep. Based on the video of him at the wedding, I doubt they have found all of the people he has victimized and I don't doubt there are more scandals buried. lil poopendorfer posted:I read that he's looking to serve as many terms as his dad and I think he's still polling well.

Versus other people in the primary and in a general versus a horrible republican? I don't know.

You fool, you idiot, you rube. Don't you see how this is a really complicated Law Thing that I understand because I went to a very expensive school and read very thoughtful articles about how this is The Rules and Good Actually, and unless Joe Biden and his administration defends Donald Trump against rape charges the Democrats will be just as bad...or worse! than Donald Trump himself and it will be fascist authoritarianism which I clap am clap not clap here clap for? Don't you have any respect for the norms of this great nation? Have you no decorum? Can't get in trouble if you are or have ever been the president, that's part of the game. Trump will never be held accountable for any of the rape or sexual abuse he's committed (or anything else), just as Joe Biden will never be held accountable for any of the rape or sexual abuse (or anything else) he's committed. E. Jean Carroll, like Tara Reade, will never see justice. The women who Cuomo abused will never see justice. That's not how it works here. There was maybe a slight, slight chance that this could have been starting to change but we had to torpedo #MeToo in order to defeat the friggin Mango Mussolini, so
