Doug Jones says "Move on from Trump Sexual Allegations" - I agree [View all]

I agree with him. Hear me out. In no way do I believe that Doug Jones is somehow endorsing sexual assualt or endorsing allowing it to happen. But really...at this point what is going to happen with Trump? It is true this all came out pre-election and the assholes still voted (enough) for him to elect him. He isn't going to resign over this. Period. No Congressional investigations will occur with the Repubes in the House and Senate. So really a no-win.

What can win is 2018. I think Doug Jones wants to talk about the other dozens of issues we need to be discussing...education, foreign policy, science, healthcare, etc. We MUST kick ass in 2018 and take the House and possibly the Senate. We must work on state legislatures and gubernatorial races...plus all down tickets.

We can certainly keep hammering Trump on the allegations but it won't do any good at this point. Let's kick Congresses ass to the curb and then we can really do some fun things once we win elections in 2018.
