The Dems are forcing the resignations of Franken and Conyers hoping to shame the Republicans into abandoning Moore before the election. But they have nothing to lose because both Franken and Conyers will be replaced by Dems.
That’s exactly it. Furthermore, notice how the media has buried the fact Menendez had sex with underage prostitutes. That’s mostly because Chris Christie would pick his replacement and is still in office until January 16.
The left doesn’t do ANYTHING that doesn’t maximize their political power. They waited to unload in Moore until the only real possible alternative to him is Democrat.
Alabama voters are not going to abandon Moore because a left wing perv Minnesota senator resigns. Alabamans are smarter than that.
That is the short term goal. The long term goal is to get Trump to resign.
