A SCOTUS Opening

Pretty sure all you're showing is the Dems hold the GOP to a higher standard than they do theirs.

Trump stating that there are women that let you grab them is no way as damning as a photo of Franken actually doing it to a sleeping woman. It is what the difference was. 

But  you guys keep holding yours to a higher standard.

Hmmm. Franken out of office while Trump is president shows the Dems only hold the GOP to a higher standard? 

That certainly shows the Repubs don't hold theirs to a higher standard. And because Dems won't have a candidate like Trump, that shows we do.

Franken, by the way, is pretending to grab a fellow comedian in the picture, who as part of her routine allowed other performers to grab her ass on stage. It was the absence of consent that really decided the issue here--equally absent in the case of Trump's actually grabbing women because he could, and not pretending. You don't think Franken would have been booted for the Hollywood Access tape--plus 23 other separate allegations of rape/assault? It had to be a picture?

I could mention others who have certainly paid a price--like Justin Fairfax, Lt. Gov. of VA. When two rape allegations surfaced, he decided to remain in office, and was promptly placed on leave from his job, booted from his board position at Duke University, forced to resign from the Dem Lt Governor's association, and LOUDLY condemned by virtually every serving member of the Dem House and Senate.  

Repubs respond to the record number of allegations against Trump by chalking all that up to "Trump hate."

You are not "black" if you don't vote for the guy who wouldn't let black people rent his apartments? 

The guy who doesn't want immigration from "shithole" countries--like that one Obama came from? 

Imagine that a trending retweet that on #whitegenocide.
