EMBATTLED GOVERNOR CUOMO STILL HANGING IN THERE BUT FOR HOW LONG?

ICHEOKU says if only American men had listened and rallied around Harvey Weinstein when he was used as a test guinea pig in the experiment by the #MeToo scavengers to go after some powerful men and bring them down, may be Governor Andrew Cuomo would not be in the fix which he is today. But like many other men of power and influence, Governor Cuomo thought it will never happen to him as he belongs to the protected party and therefore immune from such devouring attacks. He also believed that #MeToo movement is in his corner and knows better not to attack him, but he has now been proved wrong. He miscalculated and it might cost him dearly.

Harvey Weinstein said then that he was being made the first example by the #MeToo Movement in their operation take some powerful men out and punish them for unwanted sexual advances made to women. He said that he was not even aware that it was criminal and that it will gradually spread to other men but that men do not understand the issue and are genuinely confused about it. But the men he was trying to rally around to his defense and help and also call their attention to the impending catastrophe against them paid him no attention. Today, Governor Andrew Cuomo will be regrettably saying if only he had showed some interest and paid some attention to what Harvey Weinstein had to say. 

Unfortunately, it is looking more likely than not that the governor will also fall to the sword of #MeToo movement. His survival no longer looks likely as Democratic Party leadership, including Queen Hillary Clinton, have now added their voices behind the "I believers" in urging the governor to read the handwriting on the wall and do the needful before being forcibly yanked out from it. ICHEOKU says who knows what the governor's brother at CNN, Chris Cuomo, must be thinking now that his co-performer in the CNN Cuomo Brothers Comedy show sitcom is facing such indictment of character, sexually harassing women. What a tragic fate for a man who is readying for a 2024 presidential run. Anyway, we can only wait to see how the governor will eventually end the ordeal, whether he jumps or hangs in there and for how long.
