Took her years until he was nominated for the Supreme Court. Obviously to avoid being hypocritical she must have been a conspiracy cooked up by some shady Democrat right?

Yes Democrats dumped Franken because 8 different women accused him of inappropriate behavior. Several of them had corroboration from people they told at the time, and at least one was a Democratic staffer.
