Bingo. McConnell even told Trump to pick someone else in the beginning, but Trump said no.

The real question now is why Republicans are trying to push forward with his nomination. In a sane world, it makes no sense. When Bush put forward a bad nominee, he withdrew her name after it became evident that her confirmation would be difficult. There are probably at least twenty very high-quality conservative…

“Stupid” is the wrong word.  In some sense he’s a genius at reading a certain kind of person and telling them what they want to hear.

Whenever I see him with this expression on his face, which is a lot, I always have the exact same thought: How could a person who is this fucking stupid have possibly become President of the United States?

At an absolute fucking minimum, Judge and Smyth should be subpoenaed to testify. If they don’t do that, the Judiciary Committee will be making it absolutely clear that this is a sham.

At least we have the live feed from the non-Darkest-Timeline:

Holy balls.

You jest, maybe, but . . .

The Democratic leadership should not demand Kavanaugh’s withdrawal. The American people need to see the car wreck that is the sexist, racist and evil republican party unfold in real time. That is the best commercial for a Democratic Congress in November.

No one is asking the important question: was it legitimate rape?

Hey, how about some civility?

Whether he said good things about them or not, they love that he’s honest with them, and they’ve never seen anything like it. And so there’s a respect there.

I don’t even follow the logic. No one has any proof any of the accusers are lying so really he won’t believe another accuser because these accusers are saying things he doesn’t want to hear.
