56. Thanks for trying to point out the misinformation Franken supporters resort to is false

Not like we're currently dealing with the consequences of avoiding another person's sexual misconduct that could be avoided if we learned from ignoring a different man's poor behavior towards women. Trying to link all 8 women (including a Democratic staffer and women who told people in their lives at the time of the inappropriate touching) to Roger Stone (as you correctly noted it wasn't Project Veritas) is inaccurate.
