New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo's closest confidants spent the weekend trying to convince the Democrat to resign, sources say, an effort that comes amid fallout from a report that found he sexually harassed multiple women.
Cuomo, a source said, can't come to grips with the end of his time in office, telling his inner circle:"I need more time."Another source in close touch with the governor's close advisers said,"no one in his inner circle of friends or staff" believed, as of last week, that Cuomo would survive politically and must resign or face impeachment. Despite the consensus,"he thinks he can wait it out," that source said.
"People around him are looking for what's the next chapter in their life, I'll put it that way," Sharpton, a civil rights activist who has long been involved in New York politics, told CNN."Where do I get a job?"One of Cuomo's top aides, Melissa DeRosa, resigned late Sunday. The 38-year-old, who held the highest-ranking appointed position in the state, appeared throughout James' report.
