Sen. Gillibrand now on MSNBC with Morning Joe. [View all]

She was very fair in her comments about Joe Biden and making it clear that personal space issues are not a "Me Too" moment.

But when Mika asked her about Al Franken and whether he should run for office again, Gillibrand answered "Al Franken can do whatever he wants, this country is about redemption and forgiveness."

Excuse me Senator Gillibrand, maybe you should have thought about "redemption and forgiveness" before you lead the charge to run him out of the Senate.

Now that she is running for president she is trying to throw warm and fuzzy on the Al Franken travesty.

If she is the nominee I will of course vote for her. But she near the bottom of my primary list.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
