15. Now that the Franken Test Run has been successful, who's next? Obama? Gillibrand herself?

I've been afraid to tell MY story, but #MeToo. Before she was a senator, Kristen groped my penis through my pants. I expect her to announce her resignation on Monday. DON'T SILENCE ME, LET ME TELL MY STORY!!! (Obviously not a real occurrence.)

That's all it takes now, right senator? Highest standards. And it's not like YOU'RE doing anything important, well... besides doing your part to tear down one of our own at the behest of conservatives. And madame, you are no Bill Clinton. Now THERE'S someone who did important things for our country! Sure he dicked a few women who weren't his wife, but this is about the conversation we're having NOW so I don't know why you insist on bringing him up and how he did important things for our country. (I'm sorry to keep hammering that, but that statement of hers REALLY stuck in my craw, my eye even started twitching when I first read it it made me so mad. It has a certain je ne sais quoi about it that makes me want to scream. It's like how DARE you.)

The US is heading into a dark chapter and Quislings like Gillibrand are greasing the wheels. Fate dictates she'll get run over for her efforts.
