I couldn't disagree more strenuously! Masses of women are emboldened - for the first time - to speak out against crude, lewd and offensive behavior. There is nothing about this that can aid the rightwing. If the first chips to fall are liberal Democrats (in Franken's case, not so liberal, him supporting Bush/Cheney's destruction of Iraq), so be it. This is another argument against the faux progressiveness of that rotten corporate party. Implying that liberal Democrats going down to defeat or resignation is a victory for the right and therefore the Left should protect them is an echo of "lesser evilism. Attacking Republican sex offenders like Trump and Roy Moore while making excuses for liberal Democrats is the mark of the double standard, which discredits the Left.
