“Good riddance” was how Tucker Carlson reacted Wednesday night to news that Sen. Al Franken appeared poised to resign under pressure from his Democratic colleagues. “What you saw today was a lynch mob,” Fox News contributor Newt Gingrich said Wednesday on Laura Ingraham's show. A majority of Senate Democrats on Dec. 6 called on Sen. Al Franken (D-Minn.) to resign as he faces multiple allegations of sexual harassment. A popular argument among Moore's supporters has been that as long as Democrats such as Franken and Conyers remain in office, Moore should not be disqualified, either. In other words, Democrats can lose Franken and Conyers without losing representation in Congress.
