    I sure would welcome Mr. Franken back into public office. Compared to most of the current senators on the right he’s both a genius and a saint. Also, he’s actually a genius.

Two anonymous women made similar complaints related to events during political events. it was the end of his political career good grief CNN finds another creep to support their narrative, whatever it takes hahaha

      The plain fact is there are some 50 million americans who
      are stupid and proud of it. They’re comfortable with their
      abject ignorance and have absolutely no compulsion to
      change it. Their unspoken mantra: “My ignorance is as
      good as anyone’s knowledge.”

    I ran into Franken on a plane right before all this happened to him. We were all waiting in line for the bathroom in the back. I was struggling w my infant daughter behind maybe ten men. He was in the front. He said, “ok guys, we need to do the right thing and make room for this mom.” He was such a kind gentleman, and I will always like him. It’s hard to find a senator that is TRULY likable.

But I knew whatever was happening was not right, and I ducked,” the former aide said in an interview. “I was really startled by it, and I just sort of booked it towards the door, and he said, ‘It’s my right as an entertainer." - POLITICO

Good thing I don't live in Kirsten's state because I'll never cast a vote for her now, even if she runs for president. Al was a good Senator and Harry Reid was interviewed as saying he was one of the best in the Senate -- did all his homework, spent time meeting with his constituents in Minnesota. He got along with his colleagues on the other side of the isle while still holding their feet to the fire when they said/proposed stupid stuff. It was obvious that the whole thing with Al Franken was a right wing setup but the fact that EVERYONE jumped on board was shocking and unforgivable.

    Al Franken was an extremely effective Senator. He was a victim of Roger Stone working behind the scenes with Leeann Tweeden, and the early days of the MeToo movement. He was guilty of nothing, save for misogynistic humor of the 80's. He never touched Leeann, the photo in the air transport proved it.

The meaner he was at his rallies, the more they chanted. I really believe he was trying to get a reporter killed at one of his rallies.
