*President Trump is an American Hero!*

[projectptube]

This puts Al Franken's sanity into question.

[tommywilliams]

He is absolutely hilarious. But I would have never guessed in a million years that he would have become a Senator. He is a very good Senator in my Opinion.

[rttombstone]

Senator Al Franken andJake Tapper two great comedians

[Crimsonphilosophy]

Comedy has the power to make you laugh and change your perspective.

[HexEssence]

[-HustleUnion-]

dude franken is the shit. funny, smart, and seems to be on point with no hesitation or reluctance about calling bullshit on bullshit. AL FRANKEN 2020

[nicoleelston]

Why did jake tapper let him avoid every difficult question??

[kds]

Man I wish he would run in 2020. He's indicated that he doesn't intend to run, but in this crazy Trump world nothing is certain, so I still have a modicum of hope.

[TheStevehuff]

I am going to look for some old AL Franken stand-up and movies. Even though I have mental issues.

[ryu]

I know it's kind of inappropriate to talk about the 2020 election but I would totally back Franken, Bernie (if he is still alive then), or Warren if any of them ran.

[thomasivesdal-tronstad]

Very hard to find independent and impartial people in the US these days.

[philliplopez]

I fear that Trump or his followers will do something to fulfill his paranoid fantasies. it is a dangerous time for all of us.

[angelasmodeus]

I'm just curious, how does one knows something for sure when they can't prove it ??

[newday]

Go Betsy you are awesome 👏 let's stop dumbing down our children

[truBador]

Al Franken is technically an accomplice after the fact to the 911 attacks. Let me explain. In his book he describes getting a phone call from former NY mayor Ed Koch, who is now dead, warning him not to go to work at the Twin Towers on 911. He refers to this as getting the "Jew" call. Why has nobody ever followed this up, let alone started criminal proceedings against Franken? Why hasn't he been called before Congress to testify to what he knows about the perpetrators of 911? Instead he is dug into the US Senate like a tick. What if not Israeli blackmail of US political and media figures via the Lolita express, etc. etc., I wonder, gives Franken and others such immunity? Drain the Swamp.

[daydreamer]

He says, a few, then says 'we all'. Franken is a clown.

[petebray]

Franken's comedic background is his primary qualification for what he is doing in the name of our government. Give me a break. Just how stupid do these fools think we are?
