Not sure she did him any favors, though.
“If the Governor may have touched her rear end… he certainly did not mean to do it. He takes thousands of pictures.” -Rita Glavin
“He was working a grope line.” -Rita Glavin, seconds later

Huh?
Did anyone else hear Rita Glavin say the Governor was working the "grope" line?
— Katie Hazen (@khazen_) August 10, 2021
She meant to say rope line, but I’m almost positive Rita Glavin just said Cuomo was working a “grope line.”

Wait, did Cuomo’s lawyer just say “grope line”???😂😂😂

You be the judge:
Did she just say “Grope line?” #Cuomo pic.twitter.com/VO4hAv0fM7

It sure sounded like she said “grope line.”
Did Cuomo's attorney just misspeak and refer to the "rope line" as a "grope line"?
— Brent Scher (@BrentScher) August 10, 2021
That’s what we heard!
Glavin (I'm sure inadvertently) refers to a "rope ' line where the Governor was shaking hands, and where a woman says he inappropriate touched her in the chest area.. as a "grope" line @WGRZ

Sometimes the truth, much like Andrew Cuomo’s tongue, just slips out.
Rita Glavin , attorney for Andrew Cuomo just said the governor was working a "grope " line. She meant to say rope line. OOPS! pic.twitter.com/wzZQVWjVNz

“Grope” line”? Is that a freudian slip Rita Glavin?
It’s called a ROPE line. #cuomo

Lawyer for @andrewcuomo just dropped a delicious Freudian slip when she said he was “working a GROPE line” instead of “rope line.” Can’t make it up… #ResignCuomo

Best Freudian slip ever…”The Governor was working a grope line.”

She actually slipped up and said "grope line". https://t.co/WCqUNjEXiB

This is all going just swimmingly:

Amazing.
"The governor did not mean to grope her," says Glavin about the woman Cuomo — I guess, accidentally? — groped on a rope line.

A grope line
— BtotheMaz (@BtotheMaz) August 10, 2021
GROPE LINE.
“The Governor did not mean to grope her” are words that you never want your attorney saying.
