Franken Accusers Not Happy With His Failure To Own Up To His Actions
But the Dems are so pure.....
Quote:One of the women who accused Sen. Al Franken, D-Minn., of sexual assault said she wanted the senator to more fully address the allegations against him during his speech Thursday announcing his resignation from the Senate, while another woman said his resignation gave her “validation.”
Lindsay Menz accused Franken of sexual assault, saying the Minnesota Democrat grabbed her butt while they were posing for a photo at the Minnesota State Fair in 2010, while he was a senator.
“I definitely wanted more answers today,” Menz told ABC’s “Nightline,” in reaction to Franken’s announcement. “I expected for him to come and share the truth, share what he had experienced, you know, give us some sort of resolve to the situation, and I don’t feel like there was resolve to the situation today.”
In his resignation speech on the Senate floor, Franken did not admit wrongdoing and said some of the allegations made against him aren’t true, while others involve incidents he remembers differently.

There is proof of the allegations against Franken.
There is ZERO proof of any allegations against Moore. What we DO know is that there are a LOT of people on both sides of the aisle who don't want Moore in office, and are also pissed that Trump endorsed him. I would be shocked if there aren't similar allegations against any conservative Republican going forward.
Moore threatens to shake up the establishment, and they can't/won't have that.

The undercurrent of comments about Franken from the Minnesota left is that he shouldn't resign.
Basically, Minnesota Democrats believe:
*we should always believe victims of sexual assault. Except Franken's victims because one of the accusers might be right leaning.
*they're uncomfortable with accusations being used to push for Franken's resignation, but Roy Moore is a Koch Brother plant Trumperist pedophilie typical southern straight man.
*that lewd or sophomoric behavior is a cultural thing, highly prevalent, beyond annoying and completely unnecessary, but it is not criminal when applied to Franken.
