I'm also amused how Trump brags that women let him grab them by the cat and THAT'S a huge deal for some, but Franken pretends to fondle a sleeping woman without her knowledge or permission and that's no big deal.
I'm with you, and tend to agree with Andy Richter on this point:
Shit like this was never funny. Ppl may have laughed, someone may have gleefully snapped that pic, but this shit was NEVER funny to women pic.twitter.com/hEFwTI51PS

I will say, Franken's new statement in full is a good response. That he is on board with an ethics investigation is important, but it won't change what was done.
