There is a fair bit of mental gymnastics going on in a thread on my FB page. Someone said that since it was an "isolated incident" when he wasn't senator so he shouldn't lose his job. Another said that Franken's behavior wasn't like Moore's, er go not that bad, i.e. no need to resign.
The hypocrisy burns.
Signed, Liberal Dem who thinks that Franken should step down
Since it's local to me this is in all my FB groups and the amount of people (sadly, mostly women) who think because the accuser accepts his apology it's ok and we should move on.
This makes me want to throw my hands up. And these are the people voted into office supposedly to better the lives of Americans. And they act like animals.
Take a seat. And go hang out with the moms on ML that won't punish their kid for bringing a weapon to school and threatening another kid. Your judgment is right along their lines.
I don't think those things are similar at all, but I apologize. I really didn't think he was touching her in the photo. I have tons of experiences from my college years and younger where people did things to people who were sleeping, like putting whip cream on their hands, drawing on them, etc. So in light of that, I didn't think pretending to touch someone in a photo was particularly as heinous as actually touching them and messing with them physically. But I can see how it looks like I am being dismissive of the sexual nature of this staged photo and how it relates to her overall story. So I do sincerely apologize.
I am just starting and usually I would try to wait, but WHAT THE EVER LOVING FUCK ARE YOU SAYING HERE?? YOu are fucking wrong. He is doing, or pretending, WHEN SHE CAN"T FUCKING CONSENT!!!!!! NOOOOO. No. No. No. No. No. Got it?
“Al Frankenstein”? He must be really proud of himself for that one. *eyeroll*
Also, with all these big-name men getting outed as pervs and molesters and such during these past few weeks, he’d do well to shut his stupid mouth and not get involved.
Why is it unwise for him to say this shit? Look at everything he has said and still became president. Every single democrat can resign because of claims, but he will still be unscathed. The Republican Party will smile right along with him and keep on moving.
He's got some nerve commenting on this topic. A pebble would shatter his glass house.
This creepy ass fucker. This statement is not just absurd in its irony, but also fucking disgusting with the thinly veiled excitement with which he worded it.
I guess IQ45 thinks his sexual abuse scandals have gone away? Jump right in here dumbass. But, perhaps he should grab a seat. It may take a minute to dig out all the skeletons tucked back in his closet behind his ill-fitted suits and squirrel wigs.

Men aint shit. Been saying it for years. Even good men if given the chance, a large percent will do terrible things. Get used to this. Never look up to a man.

i wonder what would happen if allegations came out against Trump now from new women...have we really turned a corner & started believing women and paying attention to them?

IT CAN BE BOTH. HE CAN HAVE DONE THESE THINGS AND IT CAN BE A RUSSIAN DISINFORMATION PLOT. If he hadn't taken a picture of him pretending to assault her, we wouldn't be having this conversation.

The same thing that is happening to Moore...nothing. As the woman on NPR said, when you are strong in your faith there will always be those who persecute you. Or some bullshit. And they have managed to convince themselves that 45 is moral.
