63. Bullshit? No way. Gillibrand most certainly was the 1st Dem senator to call for Franken to resign

She got it all going. Thanks, Kirsten, for being so instrumental in causing one of our most valuable assets to be gone.

BTW, if anyone has a crush, it's not me. It's you with Gillibrand. That much is obvious, but nice try.

I've never forgotten. I still prefer her over Gillibrand. Autumn Oct 2018 #11

Thank you. So did Schumer. Sexual assault is Gillibrands signature issue. Many here Funtatlaguy Oct 2018 #8

Here you go DFW Oct 2018 #13

Yes it was a couple of dozen of them who all dog piled on. Autumn Oct 2018 #15

Thirty-three if I got the count right DFW Oct 2018 #20

Same here. Just because she led the charge doesn't mean they had to pile on. Autumn Oct 2018 #26

Only problem is that's not my exacting standard so don't quit your day job. Autumn Oct 2018 #49

:) I got it. Manchin played the Repub side on this one, Hortensis Oct 2018 #76

Joe Manchin. nt Blue_true Oct 2018 #70

There were 49 Dems in the Senate, I don't think Manchin was the only one Autumn Oct 2018 #71

Shouldn't everyone's question be, why this attack on Harris now? Hortensis Oct 2018 #75

The question should be, why are there attacks on any of our Dems and allies? Autumn Oct 2018 #77

You don't know we're in an enormous battle for Hortensis Oct 2018 #79

That's rude. I posted that our Dems and allies are being attacked. Autumn Oct 2018 #80

I'm sorry but still don't understand. Were you also Hortensis Oct 2018 #82

Yes, I was questioning why the single post about her. She wasn't the only one to join in Autumn Oct 2018 #83

It is disappointing but, was she the first to call on him to resign? lovemydogs Oct 2018 #6

Didn't she retract this later? uponit7771 Oct 2018 #7

And, if she runs, she will be questioned about that, probably over and over MoonRiver Oct 2018 #9

I could be wrong, but that's not the kind of vibe I get from Harris DFW Oct 2018 #18

+1, I think issue with Gilderbrand was she already looked like an opportunist with the NRA stance uponit7771 Oct 2018 #69

I didn't hear her call for his resignation... CincyDem Oct 2018 #17

Here are her words, judge for yourself: DFW Oct 2018 #19

OK - don't disagree with what she's saying there. That's not what was in the video clip. CincyDem Oct 2018 #29

I didn't listen to the video clip. I'm in a train between Brussels and Kln trying to get home DFW Oct 2018 #40
