I love Al Franken. Brains, humor and integrity, what’s not to like? The Trumpers had to take him down, he’s just too effective at getting to the truth.

Notice how nobody on the Repub side is funny or is able to make people laugh? It’s all about hate, anger, money and taxes with them. What little humor they have is mean and vindictive, like the class bully taunting his peers.
