The Issue: The state attorney general’s finding that Gov. Cuomo sexually harassed multiple women.

The audacious hubris that Gov. Cuomo displayed on Tuesday was revolting (“Creep,” Aug. 4).

Instead of exhibiting contrition, he showed a slideshow defending his inappropriate caressing techniques, stating that it was his way of conveying warmth.

He also attempted to point blame at a victim for not understanding his unseemly actions. Such deflection of blame and lack of accepting responsibility for his deviant behavior is indicative of a self-righteous, narcissistic individual.

This repulsive attorney-general report, coupled with the nursing-home catastrophe that he orchestrated, necessitates his immediate removal from office.

Our soon to be ex-governor forgot the first rule of politics: Karma has no shot clock.

First Gov. Eliot Spitzer, then Gov. David Paterson and now Cuomo.

Does New York state have the ability to elect a governor in this century who isn’t a sexual deviant?

I am a 37-year employee of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.

I am quite familiar with what constitutes sexual harassment and inappropriate conduct, in part due to the common sense and decency that was instilled in me by those who raised me and in part due to regular mandatory training.

Such behavior is even more outlandish and worthy of condemnation when committed by someone who serves in a position of great authority, such as a governor.

President Biden made the right call in using the heft of his bully pulpit to call for his good friend Cuomo to resign.

Cuomo should do so now, rather than invite impeachment, and he should feel fortunate if he suffers only his political career lying in tatters as a result. He has no one to blame but himself.

Two days after reports of his sexual misconduct came to light, Spitzer announced his resignation as New York’s governor.

I’m looking forward to Cuomo following Spitzer’s example.

If New York had a better political balance between Democrats and Republicans, oversight would have brought attention to the governor’s behavior.

If it had not been for the brave women who — at considerable personal and professional risk — stepped forward, this coverup could have continued. The Democratic establishment would have ignored the issue in order to maintain power for political purposes.

A vibrant and watchful two-party system is what makes democracy and accountability work. A one-party system has limited interest in oversight.

This so-called impartial review of Cuomo was more of an inquisition, presided over by the woman looking to take his place.

This just shows when the Democrats, including the governor, denied Justice Brett Kavanaugh his due process and commenced a witch hunt, they condemned themselves to the same treatment.

As Americans, whatever our party affiliation, we should always strive for fair, impartial, transparent hearings and reviews, where anonymity by the accusers is not permitted and the facts are there for all to see.

Cuomo is more than a creep. What he has done tells me he has absolutely no respect for anyone, especially women.

He needs to resign, but he probably won’t. Being from New York, I was ashamed that he was my governor.

Like a lot of New Yorkers, I just moved to Florida, and I’m happy I did. I feel bad for those Republican New Yorkers who barely have a voice. I can only pray he gets voted out and someone better gets voted in.
