“#No one acts like this<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n

Mayor de Blasio blasted Gov. Andrew Cuomo as a bully whose threatening behavior is abnormal and beyond the pale \u2014 even in the rough-and-tumble world of politics.<\/p>\n

\u201cI talk to Chuck Schumer all the time, I talk to Nancy Pelosi,\u201d de Blasio said on NY 1 Monday night.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve talked to US presidents. No one acts like this,\u201d the mayor said.<\/p>\n

De Blasio unloaded on Cuomo as a third woman accused the embattled governor of inapp<\/a>ropriate behavior during an encounter at a wedding party.<\/p>\n

Asked about his relationship with Cuomo, de Blasio said, \u201cI had experienced many different realities that showed not being decent, I would call the normal way people are supposed to relate to each in government when you can disagree. People can be tough to each other.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe classic reality that we\u2019ve seen here, [is the]threatening of people, the attempt to undermine people in ways that don\u2019t conform to how things are normally done.\u201d<\/p>\n

The two powerful New York Democratic pols have often been at odds during the overlapping tenures as mayor and governor.<\/p>\n

After a nasty dispute in 2015, de Blasio said Cuomo engaged in \u201cpolitical machinations\u201d and \u201csome sort of revenge or vendetta\u201d if people disagreed with him.<\/p>\n

De Blasio lit into Cuomo again on accusations of on-the-job sexual harassment leveled against the governor by former staffers Lindsey Boylan and Charlotte Bennett, as well as his controversial nursing home policies.<\/p>\n

He said the Cuomo scandals have created a \u201ctrust crisis\u201d and a \u201ccrisis of confidence.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cTwo women have come forward with very detailed accounts of sexual harassment. This is the kind of thing that should never happen in today\u2019s society anywhere \u2014 but particularly with someone entrusted with leadership and who is supposed to look for the rights of women.<\/p>\n

\u201cTo see that someone may have literally used their power over a young woman, the fact she was an employee, to try to insinuate she should have a sexual relationship with him. That\u2019s how certainly Charlotte Bennett heard it. And I don\u2019t blame her given the details we heard. That sounds exactly like what was being said. That\u2019s unacceptable behavior.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cCome on! That\u2019s just not acceptable behavior in today\u2019s society.\u201d<\/p>\n

Before the scandals rocked his governorship, Cuomo was planning to run for a fourth term next year. But de Blasio said Cuomo may not be able to finish his term.<\/p>\n

He said Cuomo becomes \u201cinvalidated\u201d if the harassment accusations are substantiated.<\/p>\n

State Attorney General<\/a> Letitia James is overseeing the Cuomo probe and will appoint an independent investigator to handle the case.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m talking about the ramifications here. You don\u2019t have the trust of the people anymore. If you can\u2019t look people in the eye, what do you do?,\u201d the mayor said.<\/p>\n

The governor\u2019s office had no immedia<\/a>te comment on de Blasio\u2019s claims about the governor\u2019s threatening behavior.<\/p>\n

Cuomo did release a statement on Sunday trying to explain away the harassment allegations, characterizing his comments as \u201cjokes.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAt work sometimes I think I am being playful and make jokes that I think are funny. I do, on occasion, tease people in what I think is a good natured way,\u201d Cuomo said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI now understand that my interactions may have been insensitive or too personal and that some of my comments, given my position, made others feel in ways I never intended,\u201d he added. \u201cI acknowledge some of the things I have said have been misinterpreted as an unwanted flirtation. To the extent anyone felt that way, I am truly sorry.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"Gov.
A woman, Anna Ruch, said Gov. Cuomo placed his hands on her cheeks at a wedding and asked if he could kiss her.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Earlier Monday, de Blasio said Cuomo\u2019s treatment of the young women was no laughing matter. <\/p>\n

The mayor also referenced the Cuomo nursing home scandal being investigated by the Justice Department and federal prosecutors from the Brooklyn US Attorney\u2019s Office.<\/p>\n

De Blasio referred to the Cuomo team\u2019s admission that it hid the true number of nursing home residents killed by COVID-19 from lawmakers and the public for months because of a federal inquiry \u2014 a cover up first revealed in a Post scoop. <\/p>\n

\u201cWe don\u2019t even know why. We don\u2019t know the truth of why it was withheld information. Why they took the action they took. Did it connect to their political needs, media needs, did it connect to their campaign contributions?. We don\u2019t know,\u201d the mayor said.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut we know those families are missing their loved ones.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhy do know information was withheld. Why do we know that? Because the governor\u2019s top aide told us,\u201d he said, referring to secretary to the governor Melissa DeRosa.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a trust crisis if I\u2019ve ever seen one. A crisis of confidence.\u201d<\/p>\n

The governor and state Health Department Commissioner Howard Zucker defended their initial March 25, 2020 directive that required nursing homes to admit or readmit recovering COVID-19 patients discharged from hospitals, a policy that critics said contributed to infections and deaths of other nursing home residents.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
