This is Al Franken.

92. That's not true, though.

The information was out there for all to see. I saw it. The gal who started it all actually announced it on FOX. How obvious can you get? The information that she was twerking and rubbed her rear end against one of the other male entertainers...that was on the internet on video. That she is Republican and never complained about it to anyone before the Fox appearance and Franken's successful intense questioning of Sessions at the investigative hearings...it was all there to see. (That questioning revealed that Sessions was lying or had a terrible memory, which lead to his recusal from overseeing the Mueller investigation.)

The details of the "squeeze" when Franken agreed to do a selfie for a fan...that was explained in detail. And anyone who read it had to say, "Seriously?"

It was all there. These stories did not go unchallenged at all.

Fact is, many people didn't care and didn't (and don't) know any details of any accusations. Don't know who that first gal was, or how she announced the accusation.

In fact, a couple of the accusations have never even been reported on at all, other than there was some accusation by someone. No one knows what, or by whom. It didn't matter, since Franken was being ousted.

It's much easier for the masses to go along with something, rather than take the hit of going against it. But leaders lead. Anyone who didn't go along with the ouster of Franken before any investigation and before all the facts were in, that is leadership. It took gumption.
