Al Franken: “I want to keep a lot of people to understand that these are essential in these clean energy technologies and that's why…”

I think they`re showing what the Republican Party is now which is in the thrall of Donald Trump.

Absolutely, I said after the 6th very publicly that there should be an ethics investigation of Cruz and of Hawley and those who were going to deny certification.

Now, Trump keeps saying that he quote, got more votes by far than any sitting president in the history of our country. I know that sounds good. But it doesn`t mean much when you lose by 7,052,770 vote.

I don`t want my grandchildren, children saying to be Grandpa, you are in the Senate, why didn`t you do anything in 50 years, I want to say why didn`t you do anything about climate.
