    Dem Senate aide tells me women in the caucus have been talking for awhile about way forward on Franken. Today was a tipping point and “enough is enough"

        Trump is fine to work with. Moore is fine to with. Clarence Thomas is fine to work with. But Franken must resign & Clinton revisited?

        And what a huge improvement to the Senate, to have Franken step down and Roy Moore step in? Fuck that. Dems love to show how morally superior we are, compared to GOP who just want to win and do. Minnesota and Dems lose here.

        Such a shame and such a loss for the Dems.

        I will only tolerate his dismissal when and if Trump goes. (I'm female).

        So an anonymous totally unproven complaint was "enough" to pressure a top Senator to resign? Does anyone appreciate how dangerous this is? You know Trump just won re-election and Roy Moore just got elected to the Senate right???

        4 aides told me the same thing before that aide told you.
