29. Could it be they are the ones turning a blind eye to the shakiness of the Tweeden case, the one...

Dec 2017

that started it all?

We know by now the original accuser, Tweeden, worked with Roger Stone and Hannity to concoct her story with a gag photo that was not actual groping, and photos of her actually groping a guitarist on stage on the same USO tour surfaced but she was not pilloried for groping as Franken was and is.

Has none of that occured to you?

All male Democratic politicians and candidates are now vulnerable to this new repug tactic of anonymous accusers because they now know other Dems will called for resignations instead of waiting on an investigation.
