Joy Behar: ‘If Al Franken Has to Resign, Then Trump Needs to Resign’ (new MSM talking points)

Another woman came forward today alleging that Senator Al Franken groped her during a photo-op, and The View covered the news this morning.

There have been calls for Franken to resign since Leeann Tweeden spoke out last week, and there is going to be a Senate ethics committee investigation.

Joy Behar said, “If Franken has to resign, then Trump needs to resign.”

She pointed to the number of women who have spoken out against Trump and Sunny Hostin brought up that infamous Access Hollywood tape.

Oh, the future of Donald J. Trump as President is safe, then....

Because no way in Hell is “Sinator” Al Gropen, er, Franken ever going to be persuaded to resign.

He may be primaried out by the Democrats. Though that would not be until 2020.

You do not resign for locker room talk.

The tape about Trump was him SAYING something. The others are accused of DOING something. Say is not do. Liberals do not have the mental capacity to understand that. They live in a fantasy world, out of contact with reality.

Mark my words, this whole thing is set up to circle around to Bill Clinton and eventually to Trump.

Why? Franken confessed. Trump denied it.

Indeed. But the screaming zombies in the pussy hats maintain that the Trump’s joke was somehow an admission of sexual assault, but that Franken’s sexual assault was just a joke.

What a load of BS. Voters already knew about the false charges against Trump. He won anyway. Joy can jump into a lake.

Exactly. Your post nailed it. There is clear evidence of Franken sexually assaulting someone against their will. Trump was a player, he had sex with willing women.

She and Maxine Waters must have drawn their “brains” from the same quartermaster.

So, we have a picture of an ugly leftist b!ytch putting her hand on the suicidal guy’s dick, and he is liking it, and she was not accused of sexual harassment. Then we have an unfunny “comedian” putting his hand on the ugly-a$$ biytch’s breast, and the biytch is laughing. So obviously these people see nothing wrong with fondling privates in public.

Except when they can trash a Republican. Then the MERE ACCUSATION is enough for them to condemn him. What a bunch of filthy hypocrites! May they all spend their next vacation with charles manson.

I doubt that seriously.

It’s just not in their realm of possibility.

Joy Behar said, “If Franken has to resign, then Trump needs to resign.”

Why does Joy Behar have an "if" for Franken when physical evidence exists in the form a photo and testimony by the victim?

There is ZERO physical evidence for Trump. So Trump had a private conversation eleven years ago, for which he has already apologized.

Joy Behar is hysterical and irrational. Maybe she needs a vacation.

The facts are back-firing on them.

Don't they always, eventually? Unfortunately, they have done their (permanent) damage by then.

exactly right, what is there to 'investigate?'

Oh please!! The last election was all about the left trying to run another teflon candidate who, instead of yelling “racism,” would scream sexism. As part and parcel with that strategy was the predictable unsubstantiated charges of misconduct against Trump. The American people weighed and measured those charges and found them wanting, especially in light of the fact that after years of Trump being in the public light they were conveniently brought forth in time for the election.

Trump fought back and denied these accusations to the point of suing these women. As predicted Gloria Allred showed up, a certain way to know the charges were false. Adding to that fire was the fact the Hillary defended her husband from charges that made anything brought against Trump seem trivial.

Donald Trump was and remains guilty of one thing, making some unfortunate and highly inappropriate REMARKS, repeat REMARKS.

There is a huge difference between locker room talk about grabbing this or that female body part and ACTUALLY being caught on camera grabbing said body part.

A vacation will not help Joy, she’s almost always irrational.

Trump said he did. I believe the technical term for that is "admit".

I always wondered why Robin Williams committed suicide. That picture says it all.

This was the objective all along. Russia failed, other gambits failed, now they are setting up a situation to destroy Trump this way.
