Disgraced former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo is considering running for political rival Letitia James' attorney general post, sources said. 

Cuomo, 63, held the position from 2007 to 2010 before becoming governor and now sources close to the politician told the New York Post he could run for the position in 2022. 

'People in Cuomo’s orbit are tossing it out there,' a person close to Cuomo told the New York Post. 'They’re floating [the idea].'

The source said Cuomo and his team are gauging reaction after the former governor's reputation hit an all-time low following the probe into sexual harassment claims.

Despite resigning from his position and having to move out of the Executive Mansion, Cuomo's war chest - money that can be used to campaign - remains high at $18million, the New York Post reported. 

His political rival Letitia James, 63, won the attorney general position with $1million.  

Rich Azzopardi, Cuomo's spokesperson, said: 'There is a ton of idle speculation out there and we can’t control if we continue to take up valuable real estate in people’s heads.'

Cuomo himself told New York Magazine that he didn't 'know what the future holds,' in their latest edition and said: 'I'm at peace. Look, it's simple: I trust the people and the truth will [win] out.' 

Cuomo told the magazine he's enjoying his 'vacation.' 

'I never took summer vacation. I didn't do that. I never took vacations, period,' he said. 'So, I'm enjoying time with family and friends. That's all I'm doing.'  

Earlier this week, Cuomo celebrated his beloved dog Captain's fourth birthday with a picture of the two on a boat with superimposed clouds
