It wasn't that he couldn't keep it in his pants or keep his hands to himself. Nope, it was dem evil Russians and White Nationalists.

A group of fake news sites, white nationalists and far-right fake Twitter accounts were reportedly behind the campaign against Sen. Al Franken (D-MN), and Democrats fell for it.

And then, at the end, they outright lie:

No coordinated network of bots exists on the left that is funded by Democratic donors.

White nationalists and Twitter bots fueled the war against Al Franken…

Welcome to the new reality folks; anything bad that happens is because of bots and Russians.

When did he not "keep it in his pants"? His hands to himself, that seems to be another, different story. He evidently did kiss someone who did not want to be kissed and he took an uncomical photo while she napped which was disrespectful. He may or may not have touched women's bottoms and waists while being photographed with them - that's hard to decipher.

Is that a lie? The "coordinated" part may very well be true.

More of your "muh, Russians" shtick?

I consider propositioning a woman to join him in the bathroom close enough to say he wasn't able to keep it in his pants.

Correct the Record and Shareblue would argue otherwise.

No. They were also blamed for the poor rating for the last Star Wars movie, of all things. :asd:

In fairness, it sounds like he could keep it in his pants. It was his hands that were problematic.
