#1 I'm anticipating a 'Robert Mugabe' response from Franken.

#2 He'll never resign. Mugabe is the right comparison. Power is too important to him, he's long felt that he is a super important person, and now that he's got it he'll never give it up.

#3 "And the Democrats need to show they strongly AND CONSISTENTLY stand for women’s rights."

Ya know, I couldn't agree more. Hillary Clinton is awfully quiet about her lady friends in Saudi Arabia. She's awfully quiet about Bill's lady friends as well.

#4 Hillary Clinton is awfully quiet

Folks that age know when speaking outside their 'meme' they sound diminished. Hilarity clings to her unelection, my mother-in-law pounds the table about 'false or symbolic narrative'.

#5 After another news cycle or two this will all be forgotten. Franken understands this. He'll lay low until then and hold onto his Senate seat. He will not relinquish his power.

#6 #5 He will not relinquish his power.

If the donks really want him gone, they'll primary him. But don't hold your breath.

#7 Al Franken isn't arousing laughs now, is he?

#9 Franken was just reelecte3d last year. He has plenty of time to wait for this to blow over.

#10 Yep, having 5+ years of his term left is a problem. An alternative strategy would be to make him an unperson, i.e. strip him (aaaagh! my eyes!)) of all duties and committee assignments. Again, don't hold your breath.
