(12,480 posts)The press and Democratic lawmakers have left Cuomo for roadkill demanding he resign immediately. This whole affair requires a thorough investigation. Until then, the heat and shouting needs to be turned down and the investigation completed. Governor Cuomo's fate will be determined in the aftermath.
I cannot shake the convenience of timing in this matter and the pile-on, each accusation more serious than the last, is too reminiscent of patterns we've seen in the past. Doesn't negate the veracity of the accusations but it does require a serious investigation to verify. Otherwise Cuomo will be denied due process and we won't be any closer to knowing what happened and/or the seriousness of the behavior.
Do this the right way. A rush to judgment or trial by public opinion serves no one's interest.
