If they do not what kind of message are they sending abused woman?
Who did the Dems say should leave Congress for grabbing ass?

Where is the bit about Trump's grandaddy?

It seems that this Senator and his first wife have resolved their issues & moved on. Isn't it a personal matter.

The problem with Porter is that he couldn't get security clearance because of the restraining order. That's kind of important isn't it?

oh -- and two ex-wives claiming physical abuse...habitual -- not getting slapped once.

This a good opportunity for the (D)s to show they are not hypocrites to their own ideology. If they supported removing a member for grabbing ass they would have to support removing a member who violently gave his wife a black eye.
If they don't what kind of message will that send to woman who are physically abused by their husbands?
What is worse a man that grabbed a little ass or one that punches his wife.

I have faith in the (D) party(lmao) and the posters in this forum that they will be consistent and insist that this woman beater be removed from office

Al Franken was actually asked by woman interviewer if he ever grabbed a woman's ass. At one time There was a whole bunch of stories of leaders from both parties .
Franken did not go down for just grabbing ass but it is being implied that you are sexual harraser by making such a pass.

Both sides need to stop weaponizing the MeToo narrative. Let the people intimately involved work out their own problems privately. Otherwise, do you want your employers to say they have the right to know what you do with your spouse or significant other?

Your original point seemed to be about why the media wasn't reporting on the Democrat. Except that the media had been reporting on it not just recently but in 1998 and apparently in his 1982 election, too.

Should we bring up the case, where Trump raped his wife and beat here up?

He should resign over that..

Whataboutism at its weakest.

After all, it IS an old Russian deflection technique.

No wonder Trumplings adopted it.
