MSNBC should give Al Franken his own show!

The ratings would be off the charts, Al is brilliant; would know how to put on a great TV show, and his progressive voice would reach many more Americans!

His first guests could be Trump and or Moore accusers. Wouldn't that be a huge fuck you the right wing media hate machine!

from Morning Joe were involved in sexual harassment cases and fired.

I miss Keith Olbermann and The Resistance. Maybe Franken would do something like that.
