Several have said the president should follow the example of Sen. Al Franken of Minnesota, who announced his resignation December 7 after several women came forward with misconduct allegations against him.

Franken's departure, the appearance of three of Trump's 19 accusers on "Megyn Kelly Today", and a defamation lawsuit from one of the women have turned up the pressure on Trump.
