Andrew Cuomo got advice from Bill Clinton on how to handle a sex scandal

Embattled New York ex-Governor Andrew Cuomo reportedly received advice from former President Bill Clinton as he fought for his political life amid multiple charges of sexual misconduct.

**SNIP**

Clinton provided Cuomo advice during the harassment investigation, suggesting that the governor hold a public press conference to address New Yorkers directly in an attempt to stave off his resignation, according to an excerpt of a book, "Any Given Tuesday," by Democratic strategist Lis Smith about events that transpired near the end of Cuomo's time in power. An excerpt was published in Politico.

Following the release of James' report, Smith details one call she was on with a handful of other individuals, including Clinton, during which the governor's advisers told him his career was "over."

Smith says Cuomo was not gathering any sympathy from the individuals on the call, despite the "sole exception" of Clinton, who said he should go out and talk to his constituents directly regarding the situation.

However, advisers agreed that if Cuomo held a public event, it would hurt rather than help him, so the idea by Clinton was dismissed.

The former president has denied wrongdoing over the years in regard to the allegations.

The impeached Bubba *Squirt admits nothing. What a RAT.

Step # 1. Do NOT leave any of your DNA on an object, such as a blue dress.

Clinton had the media to lie and oppress the truth.

“What you gotta do is wag your finger at the audience and just start lying about how the allegations are all false, and you need to go back to work for the people of New York! You got this buddy!”

Surely Carlos Danger had some, er, hard won wisdom to share as well?

If Cuomo had had the 100% loyalty of the Democrat party as Clinton did during the Monica saga, he would have emerged from his scandal unscathed. Truth is, many of the Dems wanted Cuomo out, so he got the boot.

Deny deny deny and refuse to resign? Yeah, it’s real rocket science . Cuomo doesn’t just look like a monkey, he’s about as bright as one as well, apparently.

It always helps to have a Ron Brown, Vince Foster etc. legacy to make your point.

Brilliant!

Behavior that gets rewarded, gets repeated. Clinton suffered no consequences beyond aggravation and inconvenience. He literally got off.

Cuomo is smarter than I thought. Bill Clinton is arguably the best source for information to avoid prosecution for rape, sexual assault, perjury, malfeasance and probably even murder . . .

Comments like yours is why even though I didn’t read the article I still read the comments.

The only thing better he (Cuomo) could have done to be more effective than getting advice from the bent one would have been to marry Hildabeast…..

Clinton also had southern boy charm which helped a bit for his media image. There is nothing charming about Cuomo.

There are some lines that even Cuomo wouldn't cross.
