About that - I have heel spurs (the type of bone spur he used as an excuse) and pretty badly. They look wonky on an xray but they don't hurt at all. My doctor said that's usually the case - lots of people have them, unless you have your feet xrayed you'd never know it. Found out about them recovering from plantar fasciitis. Now THAT really hurts, but I still ran while I had it - just took a lot of painkillers and wore shoes with good arch support.
So I have zero sympathy for his phoney excuse.
45 is dumber than dirt and not even close to being a foreign policy whiz. Only thing he's a genius at is being a con artist.
If Franken was serially forcing himself on women, he's gotta go. The difficult thing here is where to draw the line without overreacting - nobody can go back and change the past, but if there's a continual pattern or it involved something illegal or threats to someone's finances or family that's a good place to start. Unfortunately, it's looking like a pattern for him.
