Spent this morning on the Q train with Andrew Cuomo, who took personal responsibility for his lackluster mayoral primary bid. He vows a very different general election run, saying he'll focus on "reaching out to more young people and touching more people." www.nydailynews.com/2025/07/16/a...
Cuomo's also optimistic Mayor Adams will drop out of the race. "I believe reality will set in at one point," he told me. Adams campaign chairman Frank Carone smacked that down: "As I have said repeatedly there is no chance of that — none, zero, zilch." www.nydailynews.com/2025/07/16/a...
Haha, his campaign is really coming together. Copy the front runner and hope the other one drops out. Always a sign of a strong message.
Let's hope it sets in after the election.
Neither one of them accept reality
No more touching people, Andy!
Reality already told him NYC doesn't want his gropey sexual predator ass, he just has a consent problem and ignores 'no'
Did you use your pubes as plugs for your hair?
Hasn't he "touched" enough people?
“I believe reality will set in at one point” It hasn’t for you, bro
"reality will set in"? When we're talking about Adams!? Boy, Cuomo really doesn't pay any attention to the city, does he.
they could both fuse into a single person and still lose by double digits
lol. Yes, reality WILL set in. For Cuomo.
In addition to vowing to pursue a more shoeleather approach for the general election, Cuomo plans to hire a new campaign manager, a new social media team and a new consulting firm to devise strategy, per a source. www.nydailynews.com/2025/07/16/a...
Did you ask him about his repeated sexual harassment?
He said he wants to touch more people
None of which he should need to do if he's half the man he claims to be. 🙄 Retirement would be the better option.
I know he has that shoe leather in him, I can see it in his face, pure shoe leather
What's he plan to do about being an awful sore loser weirdo who sucks?
And a sex pest.
Nepo dunce, too.
Touching more people; didn't you read? 🤣
This. The people need to know.
Is he going to put out more casting calls for “supporters?”
So, basically, he doesn't really stand for anything. He will now just try to campaign the way Mamdani did.
Know who else he should hire? A travel planner. So he can get the fuck out of here with this nonsense.
did you ask about his pattern of sexual abuse
I mean, he could just forget about running, and spend a few years out there walking the earth, learning not to be a shitbird. Like in Kung Fu.
Andy Cuomo! "No" means "no"!
He hasn't been anywhere outside the Upper East Side, has he? Hope he keeps up that winning strategy.
It’s pretty gross how the local media is helping a disgraced sex pest make a comeback tour to sell newspapers and clicks. Just like they did for Trump.
Did he take responsibility for his years of sexual harassment? Did he take responsibility for hos resignation as governor in order to squash the Senate investigation? Did he take responsibility for his failures that led to the loss of house seats?
did he take responsibility for killing thousands of old people by sending them back to covid-infested nursing homes, and then force his staffers to work on his autobiography on the clock? what an utterly horrible man
Step one for that new campaign manager and new consulting firm should be to hire a new candidate.
“Firing my whole staff” doesn’t equal “Taking personal responsibility”
A great time for a new team: 4 months before an election
If he'll be out on the streets more, hopefully people will follow him around and wear signs like this everywhere he goes.
Can he rent a new Tardis to go back in time and not be an ass hole?
He was a teenager when he had “Vote for Cuomo, not the homo” flyers handed out in the outer boroughs for his father’s run against Ed Koch.
Hysterical, the man really cannot take any personal responsibility for anything can he?
boring & not news
Really screams "man of the people"...
Ugh. I’m not a New Yorker, but I always thought the Daily News was better than this. You look so pathetic and hypocritical.
Women with bullhorns should follow him around the 5 boroughs.
Will he get a new personality? Perhaps one that's not a sexual predator?
NYC just went for hiring a new mayor.
So more of a Hail Mary campaign cause the previous staff said 'no thanks'?
He should look into hiring a new candidate
That'll fix rampant wealth inequality and open corruption
If you have to hire a new campaign manager, a new social media team, and a new consulting firm, then the problem ain't your campaign manager, social media team, and consulting firm.
Hi Chris, quick question for clarity. How do you square writing Cuomo takes responsibility for his poor performance in your first skeet with saying he fired his entire staff in this one?
"...a new campaign manager, a new social media team and a new consulting firm" because it was everyone's fault except his that he got beaten so badly huh? Yup, that tracks for Andrew "Never Apologize" Cuomo.
Also tracks for Lazy Andrew Cuomo. What, he's got like 100 days til election? May want to hire some staff, yes
"I hired whole new henchmen to make me seem appealing!" says guy who has no rizz.
He's been surrounded by the same half dozen angry loser henchmen for two decades, but *now* he's going to change 🙄
Mean Street Posse vibes I get from thinking of Cuomo and henchmen lol
Lol, that's definitely Richie Azzopardi on the right
"I dunno, Andrew, I think there might be a common denominator in all the people who worked on your campaign (and who you've now fired) that might be responsible for your loss."
yuk
Also, that's a smile that scares small children.
'campaign was flawed' . . yeah it was, starting w/the candidate
Has he considered hiring a new candidate to take his place? That would probably be more effective.
Cuomo friends with Epstein is not a good person and a bad leader. New PR isn’t going to help Because we’re all still going to be here to remind people who he really is Also you can contribute to @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social right here contribute.nycvotes.org/campaigns/zo...
He is a shitbag. Adding lipstick just makes him a shitbag wearing lipstick.
Cuomo appears to have pursued a more shoeleather approach to his skincare routine.
He should start by replacing whoever is responsible for those ridiculous recent videos, and whoever put him in that awful white shirt
He should plan to GTFO.
"I believe reality will set in at one point," fucking hilarious!
neither adams or cuomo will say this publicly but they’re really banking on Mamdani being deported
Continuing to fellate trump is the only hope Adams has of staying on this side of a prison cell so no he's absolutely not withdrawing lol
So people can spit on him? Or laugh in his face? What a clown. He's not likable. Can you IMAGINE him being accosted on the street for photos like that video of Mamdani trying to make a campaign video? People might accost Cuomo on the street but only to tell him he's an asshole.
Reality will set in says the guy who’s ignoring it
I don't know which is funnier, Cuomo (pot) calling out Adams (kettle) for ignoring the reality of the situation, or the Adams spokesman saying "there is no chance of that," without any further context. Two guys in a hole, having a "digging yourself deeper" contest.
Reality has never set in for Eric Adams dude insists that NYC is magical because of crystals
Reality for Eric Adams is a Turkish Zero Bond where you can walk on walls and see auras
"touching more people"? Expecting Adams to drop out? This election season will be sooooooo entertaining.
When will reality set in for Cuomo?
bro adams still has Turkish mafia loans to pay back, he is NOT dropping out and living to tell the tale lol
"I believe reality will set in at one point" says rapist who resigned in disgrace and lost the last election
"Reality will set in at one point," says the guy who lost and refused to accept it, about somebody else.
is that a real quote? lmao
the flaw in cuomo's campaign is the fact that it's attached to him. hope this helps
Don’t touch me. Creep.
I guess it is newsworthy when he takes to the streets of New York City given he doesn’t live there
Bro might wanna stay away from touching, actually
Somewhere out there, is a dumpster missing its garbage.
Thoughts and prayers to his PR person. You are Sisyphus now.
Touching more people was the issue, Andrew
oh the sex pest dude took responsibility?
Why is the loser of a mayoral primary getting a puff-piece from the media?
Gross
Well hopefully he keeps making gaffs like that so he can lose again.
🤢 🤮
Stop touching people Andrew
"Touching more people"? Isn't that why he's not the governor anymore?
lol. when did he take “personal responsibility?” the one clip I heard, he complained about “the geniuses” and threw his consultants under the bus. I mean, fine, consultants suck and his REALLY sucked but that’s on him for hiring them.
Didn’t homie get in trouble for touching when he was governor?? 😂
Hasn’t he touched enough people as it is?
Did he try paying 50 cents while looking for the pay booth?
Andrew Cuomo: “I know people didn’t like me running as a Democrat. But I bet they will like me running as a spoiler.”
lmao
That picture makes it look like he’s about to go look up women’s skirts.
Um. It was the touching people that got that creep in trouble in the first place.
Gross
As a known ferret guy I agree. Gross
An old baseball glove I left out in the rain and then the sun and then the rain again for several seasons — did it come to life and learn to do a thumbs up?
How do you do, fellow new yorkers
Can you do me a favor and tell Cuomo to his face to get fucked Literally no good reason to run again. None. He's a ghoul that sucks who did jot take the himt to go away
Touching more people? Really, not one advisor has steered him clear of using that phrase?
“Cuomo vows to touch more people” maybe not a great slogan? www.politico.com/news/2024/01...
🎯
You spent time with Andrew Cuomo the sex pest? Voluntarily??
Sorry for the waste of a morning you’ll never get back spent with a terrible person nobody needs to hear from or about again.
🤮
🤡
When you were growing up, did you dream of one day writing puff pieces about sex pests as part of a larger campaign to maintain the power structure of the out of touch political elite?
Also, a real one would have spent the morning on the 1 train and asking him why he never did anything to fix the MTA when he was governor so why should we trust he’ll do it now?
Our problem isn’t his “lAcK lUsTeR cAmPaIgn.” Our problem is with who he is as a person.
Bingo
I don’t think the touching would help
Did he touch anyone on the subway?
He needs to fuck the fuck off.
Please, for the love of all that is holy, stop touching people. That is why you failed in the first place.
That dude needs to keep his hands to himself.
He’s a phony and you know it. Stop pretending otherwise.
Didn’t he have to resign bc he wouldn’t stop touching people?
Headline: Infamous Sexual Assaulter Wants to Touch the Youth
I think touching more people is one of the reasons his campaign has failed, frankly. Less touching by creepy old men.
I really don't want to hear about a sex pest offering to touch more people.
Did you ask him if he will stop sexually harassing people?
Pretty sure reaching out and touching young people is why he was hounded out of the governor’s mansion.
Why
yeah thats the thing he should be taking personal responsibility for, you lukewarm streak of rhabdomyolysis piss
“In the Primary I pretty much just carpet bombed TV ads and thought ‘hey my campaigns got more moneys and I’m Andrew Cuomo, really who’s gonna stop me’. I realize now that was a big mistake and 100% my fault. Now I realize I gotta get out there and pretend like I like you schmucks.”
Will you take responsibility for sanewashing an abuser, Chris?
Hey man, a disgraced sex pest told you to your face that he planned on "touching more people" and you didn't push back on him at all. You're doing PR work disguised as journalism for this guy and you're not even on his payroll. How does that feel? Does it feel good to be doing this?
I’m pretty sure there is no greater opinion of this man than his own. His hubris is OFF THE CHARTS!! Go away my man, far far away.
Oh I’m sure
On the Train with Cuomo? Hope you grabbed a shower after.
It sure feels like The Onion.
Hey, New Yorkers, are you fucking serious with this shit?
“and touching more people”
touching more people 👍
Groping young women is what got him into this mess. He needs to keep his hands to himself and stop molesting others and molesting the election.
We also know he touches people fuckboy
Did you ask him about his unwanted sexual advances toward women?
NY news, but make it entertainingly insane
Accused sex pest vows “touching more people”
Mark Robinson: this time, I’m going to sign up for more porn forae
Oh boy
Talk about a poor choice of words!!! Yeesh!🤬
And to be able to threaten his fellow Republican opponent to drop out of the race
Yeah I mean the pledge is a cross-endorsement offer to the Republican nominee, right?
Great, it will be nice to see him lose twice in one year.
the sex pest does NOT need to be touching anymore people
Did you ask him what he means by touching more people because he used to touch people without permission
did he take personal responsibility for being a sex pest? ::reads rest of skeet:: nope, guess not
Did you ask him about his history of sexual harassment?
"Touching more people" Yeah we voted him out to STOP him from doing that. STOP TOUCHING PEOPLE YOU CREEP.
"Andrew Cuomo, who took personal responsibility"...a phrase that a serious person will never utter.
🏆
He can do whatever he wants… different campaign strategy isn’t going to turn him into Mamdani.
Wasn't his main issue touching people? Just saying...
Touching people was his downfall to begin with. Seems like an odd strategy.
good job carrying water for a disgraced sex pest who wants to touch more people, I guess
Did he take personal responsibility for the credible allegations of sexual harassment that he is fighting with taxpayer dollars?
I am absolutely sure that the ONE thing Cuomo will do if he gets back any degree of power will be to reach out and touch young people. Again. The nasty traitorous creep.
Fuck off into political oblivion where you and the corporate establishment belong. You decrepit creepy douche.
I see he’s taking the whiny little shit approach of copying republicans going “SOCIALISTSSS!” to distract from the fact he’s a danger to women also it’s not impressive he’s “taking personal responsibility” because of course it’s his fault, his personality and actions are why he fucking lost
If he wins it will in spite of who he is, not because of it He’s a turd sculpted into the shape of man
I believe Cuomo will attempt to touch *a lot* of people. it's exactly why he had to resign.
How delusional is this? Does he not grasp that the more “young people” he reaches, the more he’ll find out how deeply “young people” are offended by him and consider him a bit part of the problem? Saying shit like that out loud is so out of touch as to be ITSELF disqualifying.
Delusional. I'm probably Cuomo's top demo - progressive middle-aged white guy w/ a college education, who has voted for him in the past. I am SO OUT on this guy. That he's now trying to spoil the mayoral race - or thinks he can overcome the numbers of us who now can't bear him - it's embarrassing.
I’m thinking that a sex pest, an abuser, probably shouldn’t ever use the phrase “touching more people.” And I’m thinking this sex pest, this abuser, this corrupt asshole, should drop out of public life and let NYers move the fuck on with b better leaders.
Knowing his history of sexual misconduct, that sounds so wrong 💀
Of course he wasn't riding the Q in Brooklyn. I bet someone needed to show him how to use the turnstiles.
Please stop touching people, it's why you lost the primary, among other reasons, but get a clue
You’re a hack. But you know that.
I thought touching people was what got him into trouble in the first place.
He's going to be "touching more people?" What a truly incredible quote considering the sexual harassment
Why are you allowed to give positive messages about a mayor without asking about his very disgraced past
Touching people is what got you into this mess...
Ew! This sex pest best keep his hands to himself! GTFO, Cuomo, ya putrid pervert!
If you’re Italian and you vote for him after he tried to use this as a defense, you should be banned from eating pasta forever.
Isn't that his new campaign slogan?
F U
I, personally, hope the sexual assaulter and harasser doesn't touch anyone.
Wow he rode the subway for two stops? Real man of the people there. Did his car break down and nobody would give him a jump?
Hey, FUCK YOU DUMMY
Can you point on a doll where he touched you?
He should go kick rocks in Afghanistan...
The Afghani people have suffered enough
1) Ratio. And 2) Vowing to touch young people after being told no is on-brand for him.
I love Cuomo and Adams looking at each other, both thinking the other guy is delusional if they think they can win this.
Wow what a colossal waste of time for you
Aren't you supposed to disclose sponsored content?
Your phrasing in all of this lacks accountability & reads far less as any level of ‘reporting’ or ‘journalism’ and much more as ‘paid PR’. This man sucks & it’s not a shitty campaign that results in a loss, it’s his politics and who he is as a person. Hoping this tool doesn’t get elected.
does andy normally require that his interviewers be physically unable to leave the room
Literally nobody wants that dude「 reaching out 」and「 touching 」them
lmao gross who tf are you
Who?
Did you ask him if he’s gotten help for his behavior that led to his resignation as Governor or is he going to continue to sexually harass more women as Mayor? Don’t normalize this man. ag.ny.gov/sites/defaul...
I thought he was already known for touching people
no more touching, please
I assume you coughed and said, "Phrasing!" Into your hand after he said that last part.
Sex pest vows to "touch more people."
“Touching more people”. Wasn’t that the problem with Cuomo to begin with?
Sorry. That sounds like Hell on Earth.
Oh dear. 😬
Didn't Cuomo get into a lot of trouble over touching people? Why does a sex pest get to run for any office?
Or maybe stop touching people.
Touching more people might not be the language an avowed sex pest at best would want to use.
Wow a loser gets this much free positive press?! Surely you would have done the same for Mamdani had he lost the primary and decided to run as an independent right?
Touching more people...
Did you shower afterwards? Get checked for STDs. Take some penicillin and get tested for roofies.
Is he going to run as a different person because the reason he lost is that people don't like him. At all.
Cuomo needs to learn to keep his hands to himself; he's touchy enough already.
"Touching more people" Buddy,
Fuck Cuomo, cover the candidate everyone voted for instead
Ick!
He’s gonna touch more people?!
Do you often spend time with and write PR pieces for people who resigned from previous public roles when they were credibly accused of sexual abuse?
Creepy vibes
Surprised he didn't drive right to the entrance
From someone who is a notorious sex pest, I literally cannot hear "touch more people" as anything but a *deliberate provocation.* He is trolling, and enjoying the attention he gets for being a bully and (so far) getting away with it.
#NoMoCoumo
Well considering that he has a long record of sexual harassment, I can believe him when he says that he will be touching more people.
Phrasing
interesting article, im sure, but how much are they paying you to hang out with countrywide infamous sex pest and scourge of the elderly andrew cuomo?
Hasn't he touched enough people? I know y'all are falling over yourselves to give this loser air time because he ignored you all primary, but this is a waste of time.
Well touching people has never really been an issue for him
You willingly spent time with a serial sex pest who is also on Netanyahu's legal team (for his war crimes, no less)? That's gross.
Three things here about this bit: 1. Touching people is precisely why the sonofabitch shouldn't be mayor. 2. Annie's a piece of shit. 3. It's tack, Chris, not tact. He will be taking a different *tack*.
Wait. They seriously found some old registered Republican woman, and are running that as an endorsement? God, if only someone had tried making Liz Cheney the poster child for their campaign recently so we could see how that worked out.
I think Annie is just some woman Sommerfeldt dredged up for the piece. I stopped reading when I got to that point because it was pretty clear this was going to be a puff piece that was favorable to Cuomo & ignored all the sexual assault & grandma-killing that he'd done as governor.
You *could* say he's taking a different tack that uses more tact though
Thank you. Proofreaders and editors matter.
Using me isn’t helping Como.
No to Cuomo touching more young people
Pretty sure his touching people is why he isn't governor anymore.
"I'm gonna suck less, I promise", swears Dope
Why are you helping a sex pest?
It’s the “touching” thing that is concerning
bro i don't think "I'm going to be touching more young people" is a great campaign message
You really shouldn't be excited about Coumo touching young people, that's kind of the problem with him even being allowed anywhere near politics again. Y'know, cause he's a sexual predator.
It's weird you're cool with him being a sexual predator. It's weird you enjoy hanging out with sexual predators and writing glowing think pieces on them. I'd ask what you bonded over, but I think I have a guess.
The dems already have a candidate (and an actual good one at that) why are you encouraging this creep instead of living by the established principles of “vote blue no matter who”?
He's "taking a different tack*" like when you change direction when sailing.
He is particularly interested in touching the members of the female electorate.
One would have hoped that he'd learned not to touch people but it sounds like not the case
Once a toucher, always a toucher 😂
Ew!
Does anyone want him as mayor? I'd rather hear Mike Bloomberg go on the radio and read sentences in Spanish again. Lordy, that was such a painful experience when he was running for president or governor... I forget which.
This is how you know he's a real new yorker: he knows what new yorkers enjoy the most--being touched by other people on the subway
If that creep touches me I'm calling the cops.
Did he also take personal responsibility for killing all those elderly nursing home patients during COVID?
did you spit or swallow?
WE DON’T WANT YOU TO RUN FOR THE GENERAL; WE WANT THE HOBGOBLIN BATMAN MOVIE
Loser.
"touching more people"? yeah, bet you'd like doing that, you pervert
My concise review of your article and giving awful people kind coverage in general.
lmao
What happened to blue no matter who? Dude lost because he’s awful! I wish I still lived in NYC so I could vote against him! Cuomo, go crawl back under a rock
Hey real quick, did you tell him he's a piece of shit and should take no an an answer for the first time in his life?
Does Cuomo understand that pretty much everyone hates him? Even the people who voted for him didn't do so out of nostalgia for him. They were either afraid of Mamdani or pulled the lever for the name they recognized.
touching more people=slapping more fannies
Maybe he should have touched less people in the past instead
Spot on 🤣🤣
Touching more people
Why?
The campaign was not flawed; the candidate is deeply flawed and a makeover is not enough...
i think he should probably touch fewer people, particularly young ones
Did you tell him that touching people is a huge part of why he needs to sit the fuck down and shut the fuck up forever?
Tell him to stop touching people.
Isn't touching people what got him in trouble last time around?
He should take personal responsibility for being a sex pest and disappear from public life forever.
Same vibe www.amazon.com/Touched-Jerr...
Ewww
I think touching people is part of the problem the public has with him
"Touching" more young people?
Is he going to demand their gynecological records before or after he touches them
Btw you have a typo in your bio It's spelled "hagiographer for hire", not "reporter"
so he's saying he's gonna grope more young people and try to drain their life energy in the process, hm.
