[NYPOST] The first woman to publicly accuse Gov. Andrew Sonny Cuomo of sexual harassment claimed he once boorishly joked that he would "mount" her if he were a dog, a new report said.Lindsey Boylan, a former aide to the governor, revealed Cuomo’s creepy remark in a lengthy interview with The New Yorker’s Ronan Farrow, telling him that Cuomo made the gross joke in 2018 after a meeting at the Governor’s mansion.
Boylan, 36, who is one of seven women to lodge accusations of sexual misconduct against the governor, said he made the comment after Cuomo’s dog — a German Shepherd mix named Captain — jumped up and down near her.
She said she tried to calm the dog, then backed off.
Then, Boylan said, Cuomo joked he would try to "mount" her as well if he were a dog.
"I remember being grossed out but also, like, what a dumb third-grade thing to say," Boylan told the magazine.
"I just shrugged it off," she said.
A spokesperson for the governor did not immediately return request for comment.
