Mayoral frontrunner Andrew Cuomo was ambushed by profane performance artist Crackhead Barney outside a Brooklyn church Sunday, according to footage of the foul-mouthed attack.
As the ex-governor strolled outside Bethesda Healing Center to his car in the parking lot, the attention-seeking internet personality shouted at Cuomo, from several yards away, about the sexual harassment allegations that fueled his resignation from office in 2021.
“Sexually harass me, Cuomo,” the agitator screamed while on the sidewalk, according to video shot by The Post. “Come on, Cuomo, sexually harass me, Cuomo.”
Cuomo, 67, ignored the incendiary comments that only grew worse and got behind the driver’s seat of his car while a couple of men from the church confronted the woman who goes by Crackhead Barney.
The antagonizing buffoon then shouted at Cuomo to “rape me,” which the Democrat has never been accused of.
As Cuomo drove his car out of the church’s parking lot, the social media instigator had to be blocked from approaching the driver’s side window.
Crackhead Barney also posted a social media video of herself screaming at the ex-governor when he entered Bethesda.
“Come on, Cuomo, sexually harass me,” she screamed from behind the church fence. “You can sexually assault me for permission.”
The mayoral candidate, who has consistently led in polling, was also never accused of sexual assault before his fall from grace.
Cuomo left office in disgrace in August 2021 after sexual harassment allegations from former staffers and other women continued to mount, though he has denied any wrongdoing.
Cuomo’s camp declined to comment on the ambush.
The stop at Bethesda was one of two Brooklyn churches Cuomo stopped by while on the campaign trail Sunday.
“This morning in Brooklyn, I spent time with the communities at Salem Missionary Baptist Church and Bethesda Healing Center and spoke about the New York we can be,” Cuomo tweeted.
“It does not have to be this way. Together we can build a safe, affordable, and fair city for each and every New Yorker.”
