Sen. Al Franken has another accuser. Lindsay Menz, 33, claims Franken grabbed her butt during a a photo-op in 2010.
She said he “pulled me in really close, like awkward close, and as my husband took the picture, he put his hand full-fledged on my rear.”
“It was wrapped tightly around my butt cheek,” she said. “It wasn’t around my waist. It wasn’t around my hip or side. It was definitely on my butt.”
“I was like, oh my God, what’s happening,” she added.
Franken’s response is really…lame.
“I take thousands of photos at the state fair surrounded by hundreds of people, and I certainly don’t remember taking this picture,” Franken said. “I feel badly that Ms. Menz came away from our interaction feeling disrespected.”
Franken’s response here leaves much to be desired https://t.co/y7U5T2w4kH pic.twitter.com/RoUjOIF81W

Remember that his first "apology" to Leann Tweeden wasn't an apology at all https://t.co/CaV4Oo8gvo

He doesn’t remember the picture, but he feels bad if he made her feel bad. Alrighty then.
How long will Democrats continue to stick up for him? And are there MORE stories? He’s apparently taken “thousands” of pictures.
More women are going to come forward. This isn’t over. Mark my words.
