>>I knew Al Franken was going to find a reason to stay

Agree with you 110 percent. I was certain he’d stay if Moore had been elected, as it would “prove” the people don’t care. I’m not at all surprised that he found an excuse to stay anyway, even though it weakens their anti-Trump argument.

Their hypocrisy has no limit to the bottom of the barrel.

Minnesota Lt. Gov. Tina Smith has been tapped as his replacement

Poor choice of words...

Very poor choice, even for Laz.

It’s an orchestra, hear the violins playing. I am waiting for Al Frankin to cry on cue and say OK! OK! I won’t resign.

Can you believe this BS!!!!!

Can any woman in this country close her eyes to sleep and feel safe knowing that Groper Franken is walking around?

The whole thing was just temporary until they got Doug Jones safely elected.

Trump’s accusers looked like idiots on Megyn Kelly.

He never intended to leave. The whole manure was to try to soften his crime and make him presentable over other “gropers.” Then once they get him acceptable, they can soften others with crap like it happened so long ago or even it was an accident and was not on purpose like they did with Hilary Clinton’s computer “mistake.” And they wiped all the paperwork into the shredder.

Libs and their media lie with the bet of them. It’s set up trash. And they started with Franken because he could easily be collateral damage. He’s small potatoes.

Not even good Kabuki, which has an element of suspense. Punch & Judy is more like it.

Franken & his `successor’ are both leftwing nutjobs; I say leave him & his image & baggage in place.

Anyway, he won’t resign, because what would he do for a living?

Collect his Senate pension?

You're right... no suspense here. This was telegraphed from the beginning.

"...Minnesota Lt. Gov. Tina Smith has been tapped..."

The author might have used a different phrase at this point.

The Democrats were willing to put Al’s head on the chopping block to give them cover and an air of (self) righteousness when resurrecting the 2016 stories of sexual harassment against Trump. When they realized that bringing back the same tired old stories and charges wasn’t making much hay for them politically, they decided that getting rid of Al wasn’t worth it after all.

Good old Joe Manchin, Fox News’s favorite “moderate Democrat,” who has always voted with Chuck Schumer on any meaningful vote. Now he’s beating the drum for that despicable clown, Franken.

There’s some buzz online that a number of Dem. congress people (maybe 10-14) will be resigning this week because they want to avoid sexual abuses being voiced about them. Just waiting to see if that transpires.

Since he didn’t resign, he never left! They are in luck!

“I think we acted prematurely, before we had all the facts,” one anonymous senator told Politico.

Now that they have seen the photographic evidence that proves beyond a shadow of a doubt he's a groper, yes, Democrats want to keep him.
