Gov. Cuomo, now
under AG review,
acknowledges
some ‘flirtation’
Associated Press
BY JILL COLVIN
Associated Press
ORLANDO, Fla. — Taking the
stage for the first time since leav-
ing office, former President Donald
Trump on Sunday called for Re-
publican Party unity, even as he ex-
acerbated intraparty divisions and
trumpeted lies about the election in a
speech that made clear he intends to
remain a dominant political force.
Speaking at the Conservative Po-
litical Action Conference, where he
has been hailed as a returning hero,
Trump blasted his successor, Presi-
dent Joe Biden, and tried to cement
his status as the party’s undisputed
leader despite his loss in November.
“Do you miss me yet?” Trump said
after taking the stage, where his old
rally soundtrack had been playing. “I
stand before you today to declare that
the incredible journey we begun to-
gether ... is far from being over.”
Though Trump has flirted with
the idea of creating a third party, he
pledged Sunday to remain part of
what he called “our beloved party.”
“I’m going to continue to fight right
by your side. We’re not starting new
parties,” he said. “We have the Repub-
lican Party. It’s going to be strong and
united like never before.”
The conference, held this year in
Orlando instead of the Washington
suburbs because of COVID-19 restric-
tions, has served as a tribute to Trump
and Trumpism, complete with a golden
statue in his likeness on display. Speak-
ers, including many potential 2024
hopefuls, have argued the party must
embrace the former president and his
followers, even after the deadly insur-
rection at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6.
And they have repeated his un-
founded claim that he lost the No-
vember election only because of mass
voter fraud — an assertion that has
been repeatedly rejected by judges,
Republican state officials and Trump’s
own administration.

Former President Donald Trump speaks at the Conservative Political Action Conference on Sunday in Orlando, Florida — his first
public appearance since the inauguration of President Joe Biden.
Still, Trump continued to repeat what
Democrats have dubbed the “big lie,”
calling the election “rigged” and insist-
ing he won in November, even though
he lost by more than 7 million votes.
“As you know, they just lost the
White House,” he said of Biden, re-
writing history as he teased the pros-
pect that he will run again in 2024. “I
may even decide to beat them for a
third time,” he said.
And he mocked those who have
warned that such talk will damage the
party. “If Republicans don’t get this and
the other things I’m going to say, then
you should, like the Supreme Court, be
ashamed of yourselves,” he said.
Straw poll: 97% approval, but only
68% supportive of another run
The conference’s annual unscien-
tific straw poll of just over 1,000 at-
tendees found that 97% approve of the
job Trump did as president. But they
were much more ambiguous about
whether he should run again, with
68% saying he should.
If the 2024 primary were held today
and Trump were in the race, just 55%
said they would vote for him, followed
by Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis at 21%.
Without Trump in the field, DeSan-
tis garnered 43% support, followed
by 8% for South Dakota Gov. Kristi
Noem and 7% each for former Secre-
tary of State Mike Pompeo and Texas
Sen. Ted Cruz.
Going after Biden already
It is unusual for past American
presidents to publicly criticize their
successors so soon after leaving office.
Ex-presidents typically step out of the
spotlight for at least a while; Barack
Obama was famously seen kitesurfing
on vacation after he departed, while
George W. Bush said he believed
Obama “deserves my silence” and
took up painting.
Not Trump.
He delivered a sharp rebuke of what
he framed as the new administration’s
failures, including Biden’s approach to
immigration and the border.
“Joe Biden has had the most disas-
trous first month of any president in
modern history,” Trump said.
White House press secretary Jen
Psaki brushed off the expected criticism.
“We’ll see what he says, but our focus is
certainly not on what President Trump
is saying at CPAC,” she told reporters.
Aside from criticizing Biden,
Trump used the speech to crown him-
self the future of the Republican Party,
even as many leaders argue they must
move in a new, less divisive direction
after Republicans lost not only the
White House but both chambers of
Congress in the last elections.
And he insisted the party was united,
even as he called out by name Republi-
cans who voted to impeach him.
Still, in his speech Sunday he insisted
the only gulf in the party was “between
a handful of Washington, D.C., estab-
lishment political hacks and everybody
else, all over the country.”
ALBANY, N.Y. — New York
Gov. Andrew Cuomo acknowl-
edged for the first time Sunday
that some of his behavior with
women had been “misinterpreted
as unwanted flirtation,” and said
he would cooperate with a sexual
harassment investigation led by the
state’s attorney general.
In a statement
released amid
mounting criti-
cism from within
his own party, the
Democrat main-
tained he had
never inappropri-
Cuomo
ately touched or
propositioned any-
one. But he said he had teased people
and made jokes about their personal
lives in an attempt to be “playful.”
“I now understand that my in-
teractions may have been insen-
sitive or too personal and that
some of my comments, given my
position, made others feel in ways
I never intended. I acknowledge
some of the things I have said have
been misinterpreted as an un-
wanted flirtation. To the extent
anyone felt that way, I am truly
sorry about that,” he said.
Cuomo, one of America’s most
prominent governors, is facing
the most serious challenge of his
decade in office following claims
he sexually harassed at least two
women who worked for him.
Democrats in New York and
around the nation aren’t rallying to
his side, leaving him increasingly
isolated from traditional allies.
His partial admission of wrong-
doing came after a day of wran-
gling over who should investigate
his workplace behavior.
By day’s end, Cuomo had acqui-
esced to demands that Attorney
General Letitia James control the
inquiry. James said Sunday evening
she expected to receive a formal
referral that would giver her office
subpoena power and allow her to
hire and deputize an outside law
firm for “a rigorous and indepen-
dent investigation.”
