Trouble the bill will face, especially in the senate which is why last night that the hour when the Senate Finance committee was voting on the tax bill President Trump dramatically changed the subject to something he was sure the news media would prefer to talk about. The president is so desperate to turn voter attention away from whats actually in the tax bill that he changed the subject to his own history of Sexual Assault. He knew thats what he was doing when he sent out two tweets at this hour last night attacking senator al franken. He knew everyone would point out the hypocrisy of trump attacking franken and not saying a word about roy moore and, of course, the hypocrisy of donald trump of all people attacking anyone about sexual matters after trump himself was caught on tape confessing and bragging about Sexual Assault. Donald trump knew exactly what his tweets last night were going to do to the coverage of the tax bill. And we will get to the news about al franken and roy moore
2006 when she said senator franken forced a very unwanted kiss on her in the guise of rehearsing for a skit. He then says that he groped her for what was essentially a prank photo while she slept on the flight home from the middle east. This incident happened two years before al franken was a u. S. Senator, but it has now called into question the future of his senate career. Senator franken today has issued two statements in response to these claims. A short apology and then a much longer one. His fellow democrats have been just withering and unanimous in their condemnation of him today, which itself has been remarkable to watch over the course of the day. Well have more on that coming up tonight, including why there is widespread speculation on capitol hill tonight, that this may be the start of a whole bunch of allegations coming out. Not necessarily more about senator franken, but more potentially about other members of congress, too. I will also get some expert help tonight in asse
