Franken: “There is some irony in the fact that I am leaving while a man who has bragged on tape about his history of sexual assault sits in the Oval Office, and a man who has repeatedly preyed on young girls campaigns for the Senate with the full support of his party.”

And the irony includes those who ousted Franken, but don't call for Trump to resign.

3. A sad day.

No matter how you look at it, it's a sad day. The Dem Party has lost a lion.
