Arkansas Sen. Tom Cotton refused to speculate about what the Senate should do if Roy Moore wins his Senate race in Alabama after being accused of sexually harassing and assaulting multiple women.
Cotton, a Republican, said its up to the people of Alabama to decide if thats the kind of man they want representing them in the Senate.
As far as Roy Moore goes, I'm not going to speculate about what may happen should he win. We're three weeks out from the election, he made it pretty clear this week that he's not going to step aside its up to the people of Alabama to make that decision, Cotton said on CBS Face The Nation.
National Republican Senate Committee Chairman and Colorado Sen. Cory Gardner said last week the Senate should expel Moore if hes elected.
Cotton said that could be a possibility, but proper Senate process must be followed.
That will be an important decision if the people of Alabama will make, Cotton said about Moore coming to the Senate.
Again, if he comes to the Senate because the people of Alabama elect him and someone files a complaint with the Senate Ethics Committee, as they have done with Al Franken, its up to the Ethics Committee and all the individual senators to make a decision based on their findings and recommendations.
1. She Was Born in Taiwan
Chao was born in 1953 in Taipei, Taiwan, to Dr. James S.C. Chao and Ruth Mulan Chu Chao, both originally from Shanghai. She is the eldest of six girls.
In his disfavor is the item that he showed up at the (near) Jekyll Island meeting before Trump’s election.

The Taiwanese have some distinct DNA differences.
Rules? We don't need no steenking rules!
Lots of Shanghai natives fled to Taiwan in 1949.
The Clintons were bought by the Commie Chinese. Why not Ditch too?
It should be up to THE PEOPLE as to who represents them. My goodness, look at MaxiPad Waters, her constituents must be “really proud of her” but that’s who they elected.
What is so hard to understand?
Her parents were, she was born in Taiwan.
Are you holding this against him, and if why?
Actually he was impeached by the House, it's just that the Senate did not remove him.
.
You need to re-read what he said.(all of it)
.
I made a mistake. It’s in paragraph three.
Something very odd in that for sure.
No. It is not.
The statement I was referring to was -—
Arkansas Sen. Tom Cotton refused to speculate about what the Senate should do if Roy Moore wins his Senate race in Alabama after being accused of sexually harassing and assaulting multiple women.
This leads you to believe Tom Cotton said this. Based on this article - he didn’t say it because nowhere in the article is that statement in quotes.
More fake news.

I agree, let the people of Alabama decide.
On another topic - I know Tom Cotton has higher political aspirations. My Dad always told me that Senators don’t make very good Presidents. In my lifetime, we’ve had two great Presidents, Reagan and so far Trump. Neither a Senator. Have we ever had a great President that was previously a Senator?

16 Presidents have been Senators——more than I thought.
They would not get 67 votes to expel. Because we would make it clear that we have sharp pitchforks ready to be driven into a soft fleshy part of their anatomy.
