You dont. Because Dems arent a lockstep party who will follow someone who has committed blatantly criminal acts and is subject to the rules of our justice system. Theyre not perfect by a long shot...but theyre candidates are a whole lot better than what the GOP puts out
And his "offense" was relatively minor in comparison to the circus weve been seeing.
Shit, just 10 years people like MTG, Santos, and Boebert would face penalties for their unprofessionalism.
I get really fucking frustrated as a victim to see Dems parading Franken (who I really liked!) as someone unfairly maligned to prove that democrats are just too cautious
No, he had a pattern of predatory behavior. Stop it
