In reply to the discussion: From Al Franken [View all]smirkymonkey
(63,221 posts)43. It's so hard to believe.
It makes me think that evil is going to win this battle.
I miss Al. We really need him back. He was one of the best - if not THE best - people we had in the Senate. I can't believe what a disgusting hit job they did on him. Meanwhile, Trump gets away with being an actual rapist, child molester and possible sex trafficker.
This world is so incredibly fucked up.

This was covered extensively in his book "The Truth." What a loss he was for truth in congress.

I miss Al Franken in the Senate - where he could really do some great things, and did.

Can't believe Al is gone, but a rapist is in the Oval Office destroying America more everyday.

I just don't understand why Al never comes up on those candidate appearances and interviews.

Geez, Al, I sure wish you were still in the US Senate! You're one of our best people.
