(Cassandra Fairbanks) Disgraced New York Governor Andrew Cuomo said that he would have won if the state tried to impeach him — but he didn’t want to make the state government look like “fools.”

The comments were made during his first interview since announcing his resignation.
“You can’t talk a nail into going into a board,” Cuomo said in an interview with New York magazine on Friday. “You can’t charm the nail into a board. It has to be hit with a hammer.”
Cuomo claimed that when he inevitably won, it would make the State Legislature and state government “look like a ship of fools.”
“I feel like I did the right thing. I did the right thing for the state,” he said of his resignation. “I’m not gonna drag the state through the mud, through a three-month, four-month impeachment, and then win, and have made the State Legislature and the state government look like a ship of fools, when everything I’ve done all my life was for the exact opposite. I’m not doing that. I feel good. I’m not a martyr. It’s just, I saw the options, option A, option B.”
The report also revealed that Cuomo had tried to cut a deal in which he could finish his term and not seek reelection, in exchange for not being impeached.
Cuomo still maintains that he did nothing wrong, despite the state’s attorney general saying that he violated both state and federal laws when sexually harassing 11 women.

The news is important to all people because it is where we come to know new things about the world, which leads to the development of more life goals that lead to life wisdom. The news also serves as a social connection tool, as we tend to relate to those who know about and believe the things we do. With the power of an open truth-seeking mind in hand, the individual can grow wise and the collective can prosper.
