EXCERPT:
BORGER: "So I look at this and I look at Franken, and I’m sure he’s remorseful and I’m sure he’s beating himself up over it, because he’s in a lot of trouble over this. And I want to just point out about her, which she hasn’t recommended any remedies. She hasn’t said he ought to lose his seat." BALDWIN: "She hasn’t. That’s a great point." BORGER: "She hasn’t said a thing." BALDWIN:" She's just saying, 'I need to speak out because Congresswoman Jackie Speier was on my radio show and she's spoken out and share her 'Me too' story, and you know what? It's time for me to talk.'" BORGER: "I really commend her for that. She just felt the need to sort of tell people her story, but didn’t come out and say, you know, 'He ought to lose his job over this.' The embarrassment, I mean, he is suffering tremendously."
