Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY) on Monday afternoon called on President Donald Trump to resign as accusations of sexual misconduct against the President have seen renewed scrutiny.
“President Trump should resign. These allegations are credible; they are numerous. I’ve heard these women’s testimony, and many of them are heartbreaking,” Gillibrand said on CNN.
Gillibrand said that it’s unclear whether Trump will ever hold himself accountable, and so if he does not “immediately” resign, Congress should investigate the allegations made about his behavior.
The senator’s comments came the same day that several of Trump’s accusers held a press conference to reiterate that Trump groped or harassed them and to call on Congress to investigate the allegations about the President’s conduct before taking office. Several other Democratic senators recently suggested that Trump resign after placing pressure on Sen. Al Franken (D-MN) to resign over sexual misconduct claims.
“Gillibrand said that it’s unclear whether Trump will ever hold himself accountable…”
Senator, where have you been for the last two years?
Trump:I want Roy Moore to investigate these FAKE allegations. I want Gillibrand to quit after Roy finds out the Real Truth.
Good luck with that. The difference between Al Franken and Donald Trump is that Donald Trump has redefined criminal justice in America (but only if you’re a Republican’t):
“You’re under arrest for robbing the Sixth National Bank.”
“I didn’t do it.”
“But we have witnesses.”
“They’re all lying.”
“But we have video of the robbery recorded by the bank’s surveillance system.”
“Fake news!”
“Okay. You’re free to go.”
“So. Much. Winning…”
Seems like the very least she could do.
Why hasn’t Gill done this earlier? Instead, she called on Franken to resign first?
Seems upside down.
