I think he is a sellout a scumbag who went against the voter's of his state to support HRC as the Democrats nominee in the 2016 election. We know how that turned out. In case you missed it Trump is now are president. Corporate Democrats controlled by the Clinton machine gave us Trump. not the Russians.

The Democrats threw Franken under the bus. the truly sadistic foxes are still in charge of The Henhouse. To believe this action shows Democrats stand on The High Ground is naive. They should not have gotten rid of Franken before moore stepped out of the race and the red pill hero Trumpkin was investigated as well.

It's such an impossible mess. Who's with me in burning it all down and starting all over again? yes I'm joking ,but I do see that it's the most logical solution

They should start at the top with trump !

Agreed, but democrats are determined to take the high road on this issue, and drum out those in the party accused, regardless of guilt or innocence. Probably a good idea. Franken is collateral damage.

Adjudication is needed to determine if a crime has been committed, not if someone should represent constituents in Congress. Allegations from, what, nine accusers? Nine? Come on now, that's more than enough to know that this isn't a one-off or a false accusation, he did this shit. We're not hypocrites like the other team. He's gotta go.

We have a conundrum here. Due process is the hallmark of American justice and one of the main principles of due process is the notion of innocent until proven guilty. This goes for anyone accused of anything. We cannot keep Roy Moore from running and we can't evict Al Franken for the same reason. Because these 'offenses' (I'm not doubting the offense, just the possibility) occurred long ago, the usual methods of proving guilt don't apply. How that would work, I don't know. I'm not an attorney.

In both cases, we have jumped over the all important middle steps and moved directly to sentencing. That ain't right ... even though I wouldn't give you a plug nickel for Moore and I love Franken, both deserve that due process.

I really believe in due process. They’re jumping the gun here.

Al Frankin speaks truth to power. I think he may have offended some chicks who have no sense of humor, but I think a faction wants him gone, and I think the republicans want to smear a top democrat.
