Cuomo resigned

[whattheheck]

Effective in 14 days.

[StrawberryBlondie]

I'm genuinely surprised.

[penguingrrl]

Good.

[bears]

Wow. I was not expecting this.

That's great news! I really figured he'd dig in and stay in office.

Ditto.

[Bernadine]

Don’t let the door hit ya.

[maudefindlay]

Yesssss!!!

[raangoli]

I was also not expecting this. Makes me wonder how bad the things are that we didn't find out about.

Ugh. These poor women.

[Velar Fricative]

I wasn’t sure how he could manage to stay on but I figured he’d try anyway. Good!

And now we will get our first female Governor. Maybe we should just, you know, vote for more women in general?

There are some awesome memes trending under Ronan Farrow on Twitter.

No need for the two weeks' notice. Feel free to get out now.

Me too.

[WOT?*]

Yesterday it was "He only has one gear - fight!" and today he's resigned.

I was worried this would drag out. Glad it's not.

I'm so relieved. I'm looking forward to our first female governor! (how has it taken this long??)

I only heard a snippet of his resignation speech on NPR, but it was gross. "Sorry these women took my friendliness the wrong way" 🙄

I caught some of it, too. I didn’t like how he roped his daughters (ages 26, 26, and 23) into it, like they had any part in their father being a slimy creep. Buh-bye. www.thelily.com/cuomo-used-his-daughters-as-a-shield-in-his-speech-these-viewers-arent-buying-it/

Followed by: "I hug and kiss everyone. Always have. That's who I am."

Good riddance.

My only regret is that a la Al Franken we will now need to rehash and relive for the rest of humankind's time on earth the minimization of these women's experiences as not extreme enough to warrant a departure from political life and how Democrats are standing in our own way because Republicans have no morals. Goody.
