Former White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany went on Fox News on Tuesday to demand that New York Governor Andrew Cuomo (D) resign in the wake of the state’s attorney general Loretta Lynch announcing that he had sexually harassed current and former state employees.
McEnany blasted Cuomo as “an absolute and total monster” who should absolutely step down. However, she does not think he will do this because it would be “political suicide.”

McEnany Lashes Out At Cuomo
“There’s a lot of pressure in the Democrat Party building on the governor. I imagine they are huddled in his mansion, strategizing about what to do. I don’t anticipate him stepping down. It would be really political suicide for him to do so, but it’s the right thing to do,” McEnany said. “
The allegations we heard are grotesque; they are appalling,” she added. “One woman saying her career in public service ended because the governor was bored and lonely.”
“This is a classic example of a man who is drunk on power, who abused his position,” McEnany continued. “And just take a walk down memory lane. You had ABC News reporting on the fact that there is a groundswell of Cuomo for 2020 support on the ground for running for president.”

McEnany Doubles Down
“You had USA Today saying this is America’s governor,” she stated. “You had a fawning profile in Forbes talking about how compassionate he was, and he’s such a steady leader in a time COVID when what was going on behind the scenes was much different.”
“Not just the appalling sexual assault allegations, but the nursing home scandal, the book scandal, the special testing for his family. This man was a monster,” McEnany concluded. “I mean an absolute and total monster. The right thing to do is step down. I don’t think he will do so. He will follow the Ralph Northam playbook and just ride it out … but it’s no doubt the right thing to do — stepping down.”
McEnany definitely did not hold anything back with her attack on Cuomo! Check out her full comments on the situation below.
