The new spin from an anonymous advisor to Gov. Andrew Cuomo is that this “is the first sex scandal in history where there wasn’t any sex”:

Maybe someone can explain to the governor that the reason it’s not a sex scandal is because it’s a sexual harassment and sexual assault scandal?
cuomo advisor apparently thinks it is unfair to criticize cuomo for a sexual harassment campaign that didn't get him laid https://t.co/7jlnaTppzp

And there was plenty of sexual harassment going on, according to the report by AG Tish James:
It’s a sexual harassment scandal, and it appears there was plenty of that https://t.co/RcrmJsoQZk

The NYT’s Maggie Haberman tweeted that his advisors are trying to “downgrade it with the public”:
Correct. Calling it a sex scandal is a way for his folks to try to downgrade it with the public.

“If this is what his advisors tell him, no wonder he’s such a s*itshow”:

NYC councilman Joe Borelli added that he’s “not surprised any ‘Cuomo advisor’ would be hesitant to attribute their name to a heinously stupid statement”:
OMFG. I am not surprised any "Cuomo advisor" would be hesitant to attribute their name to a heinously stupid statement. https://t.co/SyYVM7ymmS

And Rep. Elise Stefanik reiterated her call for Cuomo’s arrest:
Cuomo and his sick criminal enterprise are digging in.
ARREST. IMPEACH.
End this dark chapter in New York.&
Don’t let them get away with it. https://t.co/luJ54mGHNk
