The women accusing Cuomo also should have laughed him off.

I'm glad he's not resigning. Democrats have been eating their own for years, and it's time it stopped. I'm tired of one moral standard for Republicans and a different moral standard for Democrats. The ousting of Sen. Al Franken was the last straw for me.

I agree that he shouldn’t resign. But I’m not sure laughing this off would have been the way to go. This, from the multiple accusations, looks like a pattern. He needs to stop it and I await the investigation. I do not think any one should get away with this, Dem or Trump or Q.

I’m on the fence on resignation. I agree about the different moral standard but I don’t know how things change without holding men accountable. I often wondered what switch doesn’t flip in the head of creepers like Cuomo and Clinton when they decide it’s ok to do what they did regardless of the consequences and the effect on the women. Almost as infuriating as what they did to the women is the expectation that the rest of us are supposed to spend political capital to prop them up and how twisted that can get. Let’s not forget how Hillary, in service to Bill, slut shamed Monica. One victim attacking the other.

If Cuomo is going to stay in office at the very least he should drop the bullshit and publicly admit to the entitled, misogynistic, egotistical and intentional source of his behavior. Himself.
