These latest accusations are super credible. And when multiple women have come forward saying someone is a sex pest and have contemporaneous documentation corroborating that, it’s a little hard to just look past.
Why do we insist on backing the guy with multiple rape allegations and a Nazi tattoo? There’s no equally qualified candidate that isn’t a rapist?

Ok. Let’s elect him anyway. Instead of resigning, let’s have him pick a progressive replacement. He can run on the promise of resigning the day after he’s sworn in. That would serve justice and support victims. Yet, something tells me this obvious solution won’t make people happy, almost like they’re not actually primarily concerned about supporting rape victims…
