re: #230 goddamnedfrank

If Franken had remained we might not have taken the House, voters chose Democrats in part because we have higher standards. There’s no reason to protect these assholes who knew they had horrible skeletons in their closet but ran anyway, and fairness is a luxury we can’t afford. There’s nothing inherently valuable about defending a handful of specific white men who should have known better, allowing them to remain as distractions & false equivalence magnets only helps Republicans.

Would we be so quick to take this attitude if forcing him out of office meant a Republican replaced him?
