Los Angeles commuters were distracted from their iPads and cellphones on their way to work by a giant billboard that was altered to draw attention to the Sen. Al Franken sex scandal.
California street artist, Sabo, has gone after liberal politicians and Hollywood celebrities for years. Usually, he goes small--a poster-size piece at a bus stand or places with a lot of foot traffic. But his latest work involves a billboard for the upcoming film "The Greatest Showman."
It's yooge!
"This hit cost me about $1,000 out of pocket," he tweeted Thursday morning. "I obviously can't crowd fund these projects so donations via [my main] site at http://www.unsavoryagents.com are much appreciated."
Now the question remains: will President Trump send him the dough anonymously or publicly?
The billboard shows Franken in his signature lecherous pose next to a circus performer for actor Hugh Jackman's flick about P.T. Barnum's rise to fame. You know Barnum, he said something like: "For every buck there is a schm*ck."
Franken is a Minnesota Democrat who, unlike Democrats John Conyers and Ruben Kihuen is not being told to resign by Nancy "Dancing Hands" Pelosi and others.
Franken issued a very carefully worded apology to a gaggle of women last month for grabbing their asses while smiling happily into the camera which, in one photo, actually proved he was groping a woman--in that case it was radio host Leeann Tweeden.
"I know that I am going to have to be much more conscious when in these circumstances, much more careful, much more sensitive and that will not happen again going forward," Franken said, speaking as if he unconsciously and accidentally allowed his hand to inadvertently grab the buttocks of multiple women who came forward, and likely more who did not.
His hands need a good talking to.
He refuses to resign.
