Unless we really want a return of T-Paw (and his masterful budgeting skills) this is a good way to go if he is willing.https://www.gomn.com/news/former-bush-lawyer-calls-on-franken-to-run-for-governor-slams-blue-dog-dems … via @GoMNNews

Former Bush lawyer calls on Franken to run for governor
Richard Painter has been an outspoken critic of the Trump administration.

1. I wish he'd run for Senate.

That is where he belongs.

2. Franken should run for President and this Repuke should STFU. n/t

5. Run Al, run.

3. Still waiting to see what Alberto Gonzales has to say. Nt

4. Wonder what Cheney's input on this matter is.

6. I think he should run for his old Senate seat

[Control-Z]

7. I believe he's endorsing the woman who filled his seat

I think he has too much integrity to go back on his word. Frankly I'd like to see him on a presidential ticket, top or bottom. Governor wouldn't be bad, though.

All I know is that we need him back in some higher office. He's too strong to lose altogether.

8. He should go for the presidency in 2020, while he's still relatively young. nt
