The big fella says it’s all about Moore. Democrats are holier than thou. They may think so but they’ll eat their own to prove it.

Apparently he isn’t going out the door yet . . . he said over the coming weeks he will resign. What? a little bit each day until he is all gone?

Actually he didn’t resign. He promised to resign sometime down the road. Let’s see if he sticks to that after Moore’s election. I have my doubts.

This sets a precedent that anyone accused must step down.

Now, anyone can be taken out with simply an accusation, no matter how old the accusations.

The left will use this, because they don’t mind lying about people to destroy lives. They are also willing to manufacture and fabricate “evidence.”

It seems more harmful to conservatives in the long run.

Franken won't officially resign (leave) until after Roy Moore is elected, then, he'll say, "I'm not leaving unless Roy Moore does too." (You Just Watch)

Ted Kennedy did not resign - he killed a woman
Bill Clinton did not resign - he raped a woman
Al Franken will resign someday, maybe - he groped a woman

Perhaps he is holding out to see how the senate election in Alabama shakes out(?). If Moore wins, Franken will have to resign in order to give the dems the "moral high-ground", but if Moore loses, then he can stick around since there will be no need to pressure the republicans to repudiate their guy in the senate. Just a theory.

I don’t think this will work. I think he showed the kind of weakness I got so tired of seeing from the Republicans (with the exception of Trump and Moore).

But I do believe you are right about the reason he resigned. I think he was basically told to by the deep state.
