What surprises me, really shocks me, is that the Democrats haven’t figured out how to get rid of him...for if they do, it will make it much, much, harder for Moore, and they’ll still keep the seat for at least a year, and likely 3 years.

Don’t be surprised if the DEMOCRATS demand an expulsion vote shortly after Thanksgiving...they really need him out, regardless of what it takes.

No winners here.If Franken resigns and Ellison is appointed to replace him it is like going from the sixth level of hell to the seventh level of hell. A true lose lose proposition.

Because he knows he doesn’t have to. He’s a Demonrat and Demonrats stick together and protect each other and idiots keep electing them so nothing ever changes!!

Maybe he should check into rehab while he’s at it.

Like Pervey Weinstein who checked himself into to an outpatient sex clinic and went back to his hotel room at night where he could order himself room service with a side of hooker?

The left will have to deal with this crud before they can even think about doing anything against a man on the right side of the aisle.

Of course this crud won’t step down... the dems have his back..and the media won’t publicly prosecute him! Justice? No and it never will be... so our side has to stop recusing.. stop asking the left to cream us and destroy our people!.. stop being nice about what goes down... stop being our own worst enemy!

Rut roh. The obsession to take Trump down will cause his fellow Dimocrats to sacrifice Franken to the cause.

Ironclad rule of the left #27 — Never, ever, ever resign under any circumstances. We need to make Franken into an albatross to hang around the left’s neck.

And they know they can just replace Franken with another Rat, so it’s no big loss.

Reflecting? Will he be wearing a yellow sweater and talking to a mirror?

Putz.

I think they must be pushing hard for ellison


Exactly.

A bad mistake to push for his resignation.

Ellison will take his place and of the two, is much worse.

A traitor to our country.

Frankin is now a laughing stock and will not be taken seriously by anyone. Let him hang around until he gets tired of being a nothing. By then the real conservatives should have a better grip.

I’m thinking there’s some pictures somewhere of Franken living out some fantasy in that gorilla suit from “Trading Places”

It seems that Democrats spend their time projecting — unless they’re caught. Then they switch to reflecting.

Soooooo.... your daughters don’t look good in a bikini?

Would you want fish lips Franken to assault them?

Heck, you probably would. Would validate your pathetic world view.

Franken just LOOKS like he has bad breath.

Probably smells of stale cigarette smoke, cheap scotch and cabbage cooked with garlic.

Not to mention his yellow, p!ss-stained fingers

If Franken touched Hillary's breasts his hands would disintegrate like Professor Quirrell's

This is better since if he did go he’d just be replaced by another Dem. This way the focus can stay on him.

>>that ‘no’ the embattled senator would not resign over allegations that he fondled and kissed a woman without her permission 11 years ago<<

They are not “allegations” if you are photographed doing it AND admit to it, freely and openly.

The best you can say is “I am beyond the reach of the criminal justice system due to statute of limitations” — and that might be incorrect since the statute begins on the DISCOVERY of the event in many cases. As when the victim is asleep and a picture of the crime arises 11 years later.
