I could pick ten women I know and they'd all laugh about it.

While I don't doubt you have some female friends comfortable enough that they'd be okay with you doing this, I highly doubt you have 10 and I be even more surprised if you had that many coworkers who would laugh about you pretending to grope them in their sleep without their knowledge.

That doesn't excuse Franken but it's not the same either.

No, they're not the same; Trump made some distasteful comments and Franken actually sexually assaulted someone. Somehow, according to some in this very thread, Franken's actions are not that big of a deal.
