To underline how The Washington Post is a Democratic Party newspaper, the Sunday edition has a front-page puff piece on Sen. Al Franken. “Franken takes a judicious approach,” reads the newspaper headline. Online, the love is more palpable: “Al Franken may be the perfect senator for the Trump era — a deadly serious funnyman.”

Democrats trying to shuffle the deck as their last hand was (another) bust. No matter how many times they shuffle it, they’re still dealing with the same deck of losers.

A joker with TV experience comes up. A white male. Obviously to broaden their appeal beyond the senate minority leader who is...a white male. And after the Dem response to Trump’s speech was given by...a white male.

Al Franken is as close to just being furniture in the Senate as it gets.
